View fullsize Ready to ride the BTS! View fullsize Look at Arlo, riding the BTS like a pro. He's a real city boy. View fullsize Waiting out the rain storm at the Central Chidlom food court. Couldn't have found a comfier (and more private) public place. View fullsize He knows we're not at home... but where exactly are we? View fullsize May as well enjoy the vegetarian week specials while we're here: like this red pork bao! View fullsize And back to Ekkamai we go! First outing a success! View fullsize Someone's in a daze after all that walking. (More like, jiggling.) View fullsize "Granny! Let me tell you about my outing!" View fullsize Granny's a pro at calming a crying Arlo. View fullsize Friday afternoon: a sleepy time for everyone! View fullsize Except this guy, who's busting out his G&T moves. View fullsize Hanging out with dad. Lovin' it? View fullsize Dad's talking at Arlo again! View fullsize Helping Granny make dinner - delicious egg salad sandos.

How are your pastries? Please don't drop any on me." View fullsize Back home with Granny, and her magic touch. View fullsize "Hmm... what to do this afternoon. Cry? Or sleep?"

View fullsize And we're off again! This time, to lunch in Siam Square. View fullsize In the department store. Arlo's becoming a traveling pro!

Overall, not bad. Met some new friends, too. View fullsize Telling dad about his adventures. View fullsize Being burped by Granny always does the trick! View fullsize "Oh my god! It's this medicine, AGAIN!" View fullsize "Hey Granny, check out my strong neck!" View fullsize "Help, Mum! This Granny doesn't stop burping me!" View fullsize A quiet, cute bundle-in-a-basket. How deceptive! View fullsize Found his new favorite place to catch some Zzzs. View fullsize Hanging out together as a 3-some. Getting some practice for later this week!

This captures the state of affairs pretty well. View fullsize "Ladies and Gentlemen, this is Captain Arlo from the flight deck. For better or worse, I'll be piloting your flight this afternoon." View fullsize Uh oh! Captain's asleep on the job! View fullsize "Shh. Don't tell anyone I fell asleep at the wheel!" View fullsize Hanging out with the ladies of the house.
