And so to the massage centre it was then. Both my taxi driver and I decided to indulge in a two hour makeover. Traditional massage is a big thing in Thailand, Cambodia and Laos, and are very good if you pick the right establishment. There are dodge establishments that offer you 'boom boom' (do I HAVE to explain what that means?) after the massage, but most are perfectly respectable establishments. A chap sitting outside each of the many establishments came running up to our car asking us to come to their establishment, but we picked the most decent of them all, an all ladies affair, with no solicitation. This is one of the massage ladies. I love the beautiful Angkor Wat bas relief on the wall behind her! (Phnom Penh, Cambodia, Apr/ May 2014)

Who needs an inner-city IKEA?
“Frappant” Building in Hamburg-Altona situated in the Neue Grosse Bergstrasse, opened in 1973 as part of a highly praised and worldwide noticed concept of inner-city shopping and as a state of the art 70’s architecture. The world war two shaken and bombed street stood for a new and modern approach in which the gigantic building stood as a landmark. Already two years later and as an impact of the ‘73 oil crisis and its effects on business, the concept came to crisis, due to simple lack of profit. Different companies and enterprises tried to reprofit and revitalize the building, but failed through the years. Meanwhile the concept of concrete casted moderness also came to crisis and the last remaining retailer Karstadt left the building in 2003. The empty building, now under real estate speculation and not properly maintained, was then used by artists, musicians and alternative music-clubs, while the city was still unsuccessfully looking for new investors. Suspicious about the now alternative, non-profit but vital use of the building, the ECA, a local lobby group of business and politicians, started labeling the building as an eyesore and pressure was build up to tear it down. Politicians (including the Green Party) then offered the building to IKEA, that had already focused on another spot closer the motorway and never dreamed of such an offer. This decision then led to wide protest among the local population, fearing gentrification through higher rents and increasing pollution from Ikea traffic. Politicians and lobby groups now unsure of the developing resistance, staged a referendum in the district, under the suggestive question: Are you in favour of a new Ikea in Altona, that will sustainable vitalize and increase attractiveness of the Grosse Bergstrasse. An assertion that has yet to be proofed. Pro-Ikea, winning the referendum by 77%, gave way to IKEA to buy and build. With this decision, alternative concepts of a low and non-profit use were binned and to avoid squatting the whole building was soon demolished by the district.
Meanwhile, Ikea not having even started to build their 7 stories inner-city big-box, shop and resident rents in the area are leveling up and the first old shops already had to close or go. The area now started to become an investment-ground for real estate and with the rising of the Ikea building site, whole plans to restructure other parts of the street are in full affect.
The topic is as controversial and polarized as it was from the very start: Critics claim, that Ikea will not just bring traffic and pollution, but also and more important, a total change of the local structure, both in local business as in housing. It is feared that other chain companies like Starbucks , H&M and others will eventually destroy the local shops and social structure. It is also criticized that a box is replaced by a box, making the street even more narrow and shady. The resistance against IKEA not merely is a resistance against the company, but also a struggle for Altona-Altstadt, their diverse and not very wealthy population, their wellbeing and their very own right to the city.

This past week, local artist, and proprietor of Kansas City's West Bottoms hobby shop Doc's Caboose, Doc Snyder passed away at the age of 62.
A few days after the news came out, I stopped by to pay my respects to the shop that I've spent countless hours in over the years. Ever since I moved to the region after college, it's been my go-to shop in the region for supplies, and comradery. For those of you who have just come to know the West Bottoms recently, it wasn't nearly as gentrified 20 years ago. Doc was a trendsetter here in the urbanization of his business and studio when it came to KC, and I was more than happy to support his efforts.
This isn't to say that the shop is closing, but it certainly won't be the same without its namesake around anymore. You can visit their website here: docscaboose.biz/
As it was, I found it to be quite fitting that while I was on site, the NS 7630 rolled west by me on UP's KC Metro Sub towards 18th St. Yard. As you can tell, the shop has quite the view of the Main.
High Greens, Doc!

A group of Arabic tourists are given an explanation about Turkish sweets by one of the store assistants. Two forms of Turkish sweets are famous around the world- Turkish Delight (usually cube or cylinder shaped sweets rich with corn starch, sugar and pistachio nuts) and baklava. (string hopper like sugary sweets). Baklava is layery, flaky and messy, and usually dripping in sugar syrup, so is best eaten at the store or cafe. Turkish Delight is however dry and though usually resting on a bed of powdered sugar, is more portable. You have hundreds of stores all over Istanbul proudly announcing Turkish Delight for you to buy and take home. (Istanbul, Turkey, Nov. 2014)

Sue, the Chinese lady I met on the tour, samples some of the wares while the shop assistant packs her selection. (and mine). The shop assistant told us that the ready packaged Turkish Delight is not overly fresh, it's good as a gift for people you 'do not love'. (at least that's what he said). Fresh Turkish Delight, just out of the oven is super fresh, of a better quality and has a better taste. Sue wanted six packs, I wanted three, so we took nearly half an hour getting the fresh premium stuff packed, which held up our tour, much to our guide's consternation. He took his revenge by zooming off with out me at our last stop for that day later that day. (Istanbul, Turkey, Nov. 2014)
