Kali-graphy
There was just enough time in the morning to visit one more Hindu Temple. This one is dedicated to the goddess Kali. She is the creator and destroyer. She has multiple arms and far reaching influence. We arrived at morning prayers. A drummer and horn player provided a haunting tune while the holy men of the temple prepared offerings. We did not want to intrude, but were welcomed inside the sanctuary. The ceremony captured our hearts and brought tears to our eyes. Spirituality comes in many forms but the same chill runs down your spine when you feel the presence of a deity.
Bankok or Bust Singapore’s Changi airport is all that it is reported to be.
Everything is beautifully appointed and almost all forms of entertainment are
free of charge. We saw a movie theater, video game arcade, gym and sunflower
garden; all in the transit lounge. You can even check into a transit hotel if
you need to rest while waiting for your next flight. Our friend Skip who has
retired in Bankok and his Thai friend Aek met us at the airport and arranged
for taxis to our hotel. He even provided us with a cell phone with
preprogrammed numbers. We can call the police, an attorney, him and Aek at the
push of a button!
