Love it when you get such fun messages....just when you think you have everything planned out....you find you don't. The tuk came for me at 2:15 for a 3:30 flight. The airport is 15 min away.... unless you have a Buddha moving parade going down the mote which makes every thing come to a parking lot. Having been at the flower parade which lasted more than 3 hrs.... I thought....ok well another night in CM. The traffic started to move a little but we still could not take a normal way to the airport. The tuk driver, not a young man, was a race car driver in another life. I only panicked when we were head on with a large car...but the car driver knew to get off the road. I had to have a handle on the bags for they almost fell out of the fly tuk. I did make the plane but only after I had to shove stuff out of the suit case and into a handbag so it would pass the 20k limit for stowed bags. When I arrived in BKK the driver I had hired was 1/2 late and I found my money was low and the bank card did not allow a withdrawal....yes to emergency cash...never leave home without it.... so I am settled into a room that is quiet ..has air..shower..and the lobby has a pool...There are good experiences since they encourage you to want to be home...not moving...no place to go...nothing to do. I will try for money today... and then take a tuk to the Wat for a Insight meditation lesson... and all is well...
