News update - Red shirts & Wolfgang









Dear readers,

Here are some more pictures of little Wolfgang. He is keeping the parents active and up at night but is doing just great himself. He has a keen interest in the world around him.

And now for something completely different: for those following the news in Thailand, you will have seen that there was another round of protests against the government, it has become something of a tradition in Thailand. The so-called "red shirts" marched in Bangkok, protesting in interesting ways. One of their tactics involved collecting blood from the protesters to then spill it on the ground near government building and the prime minister's house. The blood was also used for a good old black magic cursing ceremony. So far, the demonstrations were peaceful. We will keep you posted. The last picture shows the red shirts parading down the street during a long march through Bangkok on Saturday 20 March.
