Tutorial videos for mobile phone users

A friend asked me how to view his mobile phone on his large screen tv. 

After confirming the model phone and tv he had, I was able to inform him that both his  devices had 'wireless mirroring capabilities.'

Some movie and television services require a slightly increased monthly fee to allow you to use mirroring of their service.

Wired HDMI is the alternative.  Also Ideal for traveling, as most hotel televisions have HDMI connectors

Temperatures up, US Dollar down

Weather Channel does not provide feels like temperatures. They do list humidity for the day. Using a humidity conversion chart Some of the daily feels like heights could reach 48C to 49C. I deleted those calculations from my chart as humidity generally climbs in late afternoon when temperatures tend to drop, so those extreme highs may not be realistic. 

Dollar is dropping

Plenty major headlines in the news. Many articles blame the "tariff fiasco." Investors are leaving for greener pastures in Europe according to many reports.

According to Bank of Thailand charts, the dollar compared to the Thai Baht has slipped to early march numbers.

One can only anticipate the dollar value will slide some more

Sorry, Songkran price hike was a computer glitch

For flight between Bangkok and Sakon Nakhon no tickets were sold at the higher price of over 14,000฿ posted on their website according to AIR ASIA.

Flights from 10 to 12 April are sold out. Keep in mind airlines raise their rates when there is a higher demand. Therefore it may be beneficial to travel early and stay a few extra days till rates decrease

Don't drink alcohol in public places

It is illegal to drink alcohol in public places. It can result in heavy fines and jail time.

This is especially important during the Songkran holidays when people tend to overlook this law.

You are within the law if you drink your alcohol while standing on private property.

So if you step into the street to throw water at passersby leave your alcoholic beverage behind.

Hot season is here, yet there have been complaints of a late start

Mountain people complained of the late start of the extreme heat.  It hindered the growth of forest vegetation they usually harvest and bring to market beginning in March

During these hot days, if you don't have a pool, a trip to canals or rivers is a great alternative to keeping cool and having fun
