Harry Potter in Imax 3D in Thailand

After a day of writing/editing an MOU with a lunch stop at the Boon store to buy belly protectors and gloves, I decided to head to Siam Centre and Siam Paragon. It's a huge mall complex but there are theatres at the top levels. Turns out that Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 was playing in Imax 3D so I decided to spend 400 baht and go see it. Ignoring the fact that the 3D glasses made my eyes hurt a bit, it was worth it - probably the best Harry Potter movie out of the last 3, most of which I have been disappointed with. But the special effects and the fight scenes were great. And hey, there were more lengthy sections with Alan Rickman than in most of the other ones, so I was happy! Headed back to the hotel afterwards and discovered that it's raining. Again. Rain. Rain. And, oh! more rain!! Welcome to Bangkok in August - it's still rainy season here apparently! So I stopped by the local fruit vendor and picked up a whole kilo of fresh mangosteens and a package of pomelo - yum!!!
