And with that I declare an end to the 2015 local rainy season

The main body is moving away from us, but spitting out enough exhaust to create local rain for another day or two By Monday expect partial clouds

It's gona be crowded This weekend at the Nong Sa at Lao Po Daeng Boat Races

Bangkok to Sakon Nakhon (and return trips) on five available flights per day are beginning to fill up for the upcoming Wax Castle Festival season.    A few flights are showing  1 seat left  while some flights are   sold out   I prefer arriving early, before the crowds arrive.  It's important to find a parking space with a good departure route. Bring change for parking fees.  The relax and scope out the lay of the land, meet people, and locate the refreshment areas.  Bring umbrella or large shade hat. Sunblock advisable
