Yes, Jeff and I went to Bangkok for a spring holiday. Since
we are no longer spring chickens, the things we do in Bangkok are not the same
as scantily dressed twenty-year-olds. We vacate in Bangkok for one -reason:
midlife tune-ups at Bumrungrad
hospital. Mine included a colonoscopy.
The night before the fun procedure, I
had to my weight in colon cleansers to help vacate the premises.
I’m sure one of these buttons on this public toilet could have done the same thing.
Or eating street food could have cleaned me out in a jiffy, too.
Jeff, on the other hand, got the executive
tune-up. While I was flushing away everything that wasn’t nailed down–including some juicy fruit gum that was inside me since the second grade– Jeff’s doctors wanted him to save a sample and bring it in.
They gave him a little cup and miniature spoon, similar to one you’d get at Baskin Robbins. Jeff
stored his flavor of the month in our hotel refrigerator.
Speaking of american food chains, here is the sign of the female restroom at a McDonald’s in Kunming.
Doesn’t her hair look like French fries?
McDonald’s does supply toilet paper. Most establishments make you bring your own roll.
you could end up with a bad infection where the sun doesn’t shine.
And one final picture. This is the hospital we go to in Kunming.They are tearing it down but the International Clinic in the rear is
still open. Now you know why we love Bumrungrad so much!
