"Dear Eva,
Please create a jungle with only 3 (and a half) colors. 3D-penises are allowed.

The Penis Shrine, otherwise known by its real name the Chao Mae Tuptim Shrine, is hidden away in Nai Lert Park next to the hotel of the same name, the Nai Lert Park Hotel (used to be the Hilton Hotel). The shrine was originally dedicated to Chao Tuptim, a female animist spirit who people
believe has been residing in the banyan tree next to the shrine for hundreds of years.
Years ago though, a woman came to pray at the shrine asking for help from Chao Tuptim because she couldn't conceive. Nine months later, she gave birth to a healthy son. She was so pleased with her child that she came back to the shrine and left a large wooden carving of a giant penis in thanks. Others followed her lead and today, if you visit, you will see literally hundreds of wooden penises, all different colors and sizes. Some have colorful pieces of fabric tied around them to protect them. Others are dyed red, blue or green. But all of them give off the same message. Offer up a penis to the shrine, and you too can witness the miracle of conception.
Apparently, the Nai Lert Park Hotel has been quite dismayed about having the shrine on their doorstep and having tourists trooping through their hotel to get to it. So they have tried to stop access to the shrine, by dissuading tourists from walking through the hotel. It is still accessible, however, from the back of the hotel and is such an interesting shrine; it would be a pity to miss it. Unlike other shrines in Bangkok, it is also very quiet, so most of the time you will find yourself alone there, able to pray or give things to Chao Tuptim without being disturbed. It's also very pretty in the park away from the pollution and traffic of downtown Bangkok.
I ask again....

My inaugural dirty cake. The girl who ordered it is a coworker and she's pretty modest, so I went with something a little modest, too. She got a big kick out of it.
The high temperatures are approaching and it is better to cool off with an ice cream, I just hope the temperature does not rise.

Anthropologists and ethnographers tend to downplay the meaning and significance of the few ancestral mummies or desiccated corpses that can still be found in the Grand Valley of West Papua's central highlands.
This corpse is kept in the sleeping loft of a Dani men’s house where it has dried and turned shiny black from smoke rising from the ground floor, perhaps for more than a century but more likely around 60 to 70 years. It is adorned with fresh barkcloth neck strips and traditional penis gourd.
Dani corpses are normally cremated during elaborate funeral rites. It is likely that this corpse was not cremated because it was of a man of great importance, a venerated “big man” or leader of a major political alliance at a time not so long ago when war was a constant and ubiquitous part of Dani life.
The desiccated corpse may be perceived by the Dani as having supernatural value, a way to placate the ghosts. Ethnographic accounts tend to suggest this but the ethnographers seem reluctant to draw any clear definitive conclusions. There is little evidence that it is the object of organized ancestral worship more common in other Melanesian cultures. At the very least today, it is a "sensational" photo op staged for tourists and other passing strangers.
The Dani elder and guardian of this mummy is also adorned with a bib decorated with hundreds of nassa (snail) shells, a bird-of-paradise plume, ornamental wrist bands of woven pandanus fibres, armbands of pigs’ scrotum (above both elbows, thought to ward off ghosts), and a long koteka or penis gourd – all part of traditional Dani dress code.
Dani men frequently soak their hair and smear their body and forehead with a mixture of soot and pig grease as an expression of male beauty.
