Thailand Coup 2006 – Day One

On the Barricades, in Front of the Tanks

It’s not often you get to see history being made. I wanted desperately to go down to see the tanks on the streets of Bangkok and see what was really happening with the coup.
Even though I was a little nervous that the situation might be unstable, I hopped on my bike and headed down to the center of the government district to see what was going on.

The whole ride was uneventful—it was business as normal all across Bangkok—nothing out of the ordinary at all.

Tank in front of Anantasamakhom Throne Hall

It wasn’t until I reached Si Ayutthaya Road, about a block from Government House, that I saw any soldiers. They had barricaded off the street. People were stopping by and giving the soldiers bottles of cold water, soft drinks, sweets and flowers—and the soldiers were taking the flowers and affixing them to the barricades. It wasn’t exactly the dangerous situation I was expecting. A large stack of goodies and water was piling up by the barricade—people were bringing far more treats to the soldiers than they could eat and drink. The soldiers were sharing their treats and water to anybody that looked hungry or hot.

Staring Down the Barrel of a Tank

Across the bridge from the barricades were two tanks. Onlookers had started to gather around the tanks. More flowers were being given to soldier and the soldiers were decorating the tanks with the flowers. People were chatting with the soldiers and posing for pictures in front of the tanks and with the soldiers. It was certainly not a war zone—it was more like a petting zoo with tanks.

I wandered around for a few hours taking pictures. Several times I was given water by the soldiers.

Soldier Arranging Roses on a Tank

Tour groups stopped by to get pictures in front of the tanks. Small crowds of a dozen people gradually swelled; eventually hundreds—possibly more than a thousand—Thai and foreign onlookers started to gather. The police dropped the barricades and allowed traffic through—they were certainly acting confident that there was no threat of a counter-coup.

It all seemed very organized, very stable and very friendly. No hint of menace at all.


Thailand Coup 2006

Coup in Progress

About four and a half hours ago the phone calls started coming in: “Hey, did you hear that there are rumors that a coup is being staged?�

Koh Samet Tiny Travel Guide

Ao Phai, the third beach down the island, is a nice combination of relaxed atmosphere, yet still close to things to do. There are a few bars and restaurants, but it’s not packed wall-to-wall like the Hat Sai Kaew and Ao Hin Kok.

Koh Samet Island for a Little R&R

Since the New Year I was on a high, I was feeling energized and more excited about life than I have in a long time. Just chilling at the beach in that mood was perfect.

“Engrish” Menus in Thailand

Thai restaurant menus in Thailand amuse me.
For some reason the task of writing menus is usually left to people with only the most peripheral exposure to the English language. They are filled with cryptic descriptions and colorfully misspelled words. Reading–and ordering–from one of these menus is generally challenging and often amusing.
This afternoon I […]

A Little Girl in a Stocking Cap

Looking out of my balcony, I saw a little Thai girl, all of six years old, bouncing down my soi in a red and white Christmas stocking cap. At first it struck me as odd: why is a Buddhist child, in a tropical country, running around wearing a Christmas hat?

Digital Panoramic Travel Photos

I have fallen in love with panoramic travel photos. The larger field of view of a panoramic landscape creates a dramatic impact that can never be achieved with a regular photo no matter how wide-angle the lens is.

Stuck in Bangkok Blues

It’s the same ol’ conundrum: when you have money, you don’t have time. When you have time, you almost always need to be making money.

The Journey Begins: On To Bangkok

Of course it wasn’t going to be easy. Nothing had been easy about getting on this flight.

The Perils of REI

The timing, however, could not have been more perilous: it was the big REI Anniversary sale.

Any trip to REI is a threat to my wallet; all that cool gear just begging to be taken home and played with is a terrible temptation. But when it’s on sale, I get all jelly-kneed and start spending money like a drunken sailor on shore leave.
