Stock up on beverages beforehand

July 3 is election Day.  Stock up on beverages beforehand.
Bars will be closed, restaurants can not sell alcoholic beverages.
Even though some will serve such beverages in coffee cups or camouflaged containers. We all know that.

"Extended stay visitors" to Thailand should register with their home country embassy.
Many embassies offer e-mail alerts whenever deemed appropriate.
Here's hoping it wont happen, but post election activity (July 3) is very uncertain for Thailand, with  political unrest possible.

Weather ahead:
