Welcome to Thailand, Tod and Carlene!


FEB 2008
Our wonderful friends, Tod and Carlene from Alpine came for a 10 day visit to Thailand! Within the first 7 hours of their arrival we got in a car accident and totaled my car. The police were there in about 5 seconds - there was a station right on the corner of the accident. We had been on our way to the Floating Market, and didn't know it at the time, but we were way lost (I thought I could find it with no problem, but I was wrong). Billy was at the University and came to meet us. Unfortunately the English guy who offered his help told us we were on the correct road to the Floating Market; I told Billy this information so he went West but we were way down South about 45 minutes in the wrong direction. By the time he finally got to us most of the traumatic part was over. {{You can tell by Carlene and Tod's smiling faces that they were so excited to be in Thailand that they weren't going to let a little ole' accident get them down ... such troopers and good friends}}
