Kalmaegi Who?

Heavy rains and weather warnings had been forecast for our area. The satellite image seems to confirm that prediction.  In reality we had a short shower overnight and most likely we may have a shower or two tonight.

It's been slightly overcast for most of the day with an occasional glimpse of sunshine.
At the time of the picture I heard a plane overhead, but it was hidden by the clouds.

I'm a novice in such matters, but I think this is the 'Fat Boy Deluxe' I saw next door to Apple's restaurant. 

The owner said it's for sale for 1 million Baht.  Almost double the Stateside price of around $17,000
