A Look Back at SteemFeststeemCreated with Sketch.

I got there a day early to give myself a shot at recovering from jet lag and adapting to a 12-timezones-from-home biological clock (my body didn’t think much of the plan) and did a bit of exploring near the hotel:

tuk-tuk making a delivery to a street vendor

An alternative to bacon and eggs for breakfast.

When registering, I got the de rigueur Steem swag:

All this time living in Steemlandia and I still have problems with portrait-orientation photos?

River ferries are a quick way to get around in Bangkok, a city of canals. It’s a good idea to purse your lips; you sometimes get splashed and you really don’t want that water to end up in your mouth. Giardia, cyclosporiasis, dysentery, and typhus are not your friends:

Arriving at the Siam Society for presentations. One of the younger attendees wanted some quality time with the microphone:

Then outside for a catered lunch. As I stepped onto the artificial turf (which is apparently ineffective as a cushion for the concrete beneath it) to the right of the food line I used my klutz skills to trip and inflict a great deal of pain on my left knee (a month later, it’s still tender in spots):

Thanks to @firepower for stepping in as an ad hoc emergency medical technician.

A trip to a Buddhist temple, no kneeling when entering a building for me:

@rollie1212 samples some of the beer he brewed, @howo concentrates on the food:

Blurry graffiti I snapped a pic of while walking. Steemians were briskly heading to the next venue. I doubt that the artist has much in the way of experience with building snowmen, Bangkok has never gotten down to freezing:

A night of food, drinks, and conversation at Baan Rim Naan, on the Chao Phraya River:

The #inktober exhibit at Yelo House. Entering the building from the canal side, the lower level was not built with people my size in mind. That’s a steel I-beam at eye-level:

I somehow managed to not get a still photo of the karaoke.

At the after party in @roelandp’s suite:
