How large Zurich’s main train station is.
What place you hadn’t been to in a while surprised you?

I always forget how distances in Bangkok expand when you start walking in the humid heat.

and also yesterday on the train ride back, I realised how cosmopolitan the Zurich area is. Had forgotten that, too!

Last time in Istanbul, right before the pandemic started. It made me sad to see how both train stations - old and historic buildings - are now defunct and the buildings dilapidated. There seem to be some crazy plans for the old station on the Asian side and I fear it will all be a total f... up.

The closure of Hua Lampong has been delayed. The government wanted to develop the site commercially to pay down the debts owed by the railway. Now they are reconsidering. Someone has an important general in his hip pocket.
