I flew back to Bangkok the morning of the 28th. I had prebooked a bunk on the evening train to Chiang Mai before I went to Cambodia. At the time there was only one running, as opposed to four before the flood. Leaving BKK I saw my first serious 'many water' from the carriage window. Cars and trucks were ploughing through the standing water. It took a long time to get out of town. I think because the train track was under water too. As we progressed north the engine kept breaking down. We passed very slowly over the newly rebuilt washed out section. We were six hours late getting into C.M.
I made a special trip north to see Manchester Mike and Trevor before I go to Hua Hin and home on the 7th. With the strike in England, Mike and Trevor may be delayed. I've booked a return to BKK for the 2nd. I hope I see them. I'll see you soon. Thanks for reading.
Doablah
