Most often I compose this blog in late afternoon. Life from the OFH is quite social. Today for instance there was coffee with friends at 2:20, social hour with other friends at 4:30 and dinner with another group at 6:00/ This is not to mention a trip to Costco with Lisa this morning. This explains the bit later writing tonight.
Thailand is flooding again. The central plains where Ayutthaya is situated is very flat. Bangkok is 100 kilometers down stream on the Chao Praya River. There is only a six meter drop of elevation in that distance. Consequently water does not drain rapidly. The rainy season is from July to October so floods may last awhile.

This is a current picture of the flood wall holding back the Chao Praya River from Wat (temple) Chaiwatthanaram which I passed on my way to school.
