Bike for Dad in Bangkok

I got to Bangkok in time to see the "Bike for Dad" bike ride that took place downtown for the King of Thailand who is presently in hospital. The King is 88 years old. The Thais dearly love him and rightfully so. He has been an enormous help and strength to his people, a real king with real apathy for his kingdom. He is such a good example of a leader.

King Bhumibol Adulyadej or Rama IX took the throne on June 9,1946. He is the world's longest reigning monarch.
