Re: Bars shutting at 6pm?

Firefly cruise

We were picked up at the hotel around 11:45. We then picked up more two groups, all Germans plus a German speaking extra guide. About 2 hours after we were piked up driving toward north and Bangkok we were at the railway market in Amphawa. It was a really nice market, that except for some souvenirs ...

The days of the week kind of blends into each other... :wink: So yesterday afternoon I started planning to go to the Magic Balloon Park this afternoon for a flight and then a dinner.

Re: The WOW Science Thread

As far as I can see, only the original series with Carl Sagan is available on Youtube.

The new version is being broadcasted in the US every Sunday with episode 3 (of 13) is on this Sunday.

The 2 first episodes are available on torrent sites.
