Part 9 in the Ao Nang Beach, Krabi, Thailand series of beach walking and exploration brings me back to the topic of how IMPORTANT taking some time Away from the "busy" that is Bangkok can be to my physical, emotional and mental health. I came back to my current new favorite beach: Hat Noppharat Thara Beach As part of my AirAsia Unlimited Pass, I headed down to Krabi, took a minivan \to Ao Nang beach and began a vacation that ended up turning into an EXCELLENT week of reflection, prioritization, thinking, planning and gratitude. Here's video #9 of the mighty series and Part 10 comes in shortly... Stay tuned :-) Live The Dream! ~mikes --- Thanks for Joining me!

In the previous video "Ao Manao Beach - Prachuap Khiri Khan (part 1)" { https://youtu.be/qiKMG_N1LUs } Gracie and I walked down to the end of Ao Manao beach here in Prachuap Khiri Khan. As we started walking back... well, as I started walking back and Gracie sat in the shade of a nearby tree, protecting herself from the death-rays of the mighty red-yellow ball in the sky.. yeh know, because she's Asian ;-) I pause, however briefly, and realized the THIS was one of those "views" that I had had in my mind. One of those "pictures" or maybe even "fantasies" of what my life would be like or what a day might be like when I "moved to Thailand" I was reviewing my YouTube channel the other day and in one of the descriptions I stated that "my goal is to move to Thailand by ~April 2018". I landed at Suvarnabhumi, Bangkok International Airport on 21 November, 2019. So, I am *really* happy with that. about 18 months past my original goal is VERY acceptable for me. In fact, I'm still "pinching myself" MANY times per week. I am THE Luckiest Guy In The World! I genuinely hope that you feel the same way about your life!

In countries where commercial departure options remain available, U.S. citizens who live in the United States should arrange for immediate return to the United States, unless they are prepared to remain abroad for an indefinite period. U.S. citizens who live abroad should avoid all international travel. Many countries are experiencing COVID-19 outbreaks and implementing travel restrictions and mandatory quarantines, closing borders, and prohibiting non-citizens from entry with little advance notice. Airlines have cancelled many international flights and several cruise operators have suspended operations or cancelled trips. If you choose to travel internationally, your travel plans may be severely disrupted, and you may be forced to remain outside of the United States for an indefinite timeframe. On March 14, the Department of State authorized the departure of U.S. personnel and family members from any diplomatic or consular post in the world who have determined they are at higher risk of a poor outcome if exposed to COVID-19 or who have requested departure based on a commensurate justification. These departures may limit the ability of U.S. Embassies and consulates to provide services to U.S. citizens. For the latest information regarding COVID-19, please visit the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC)website. You are encouraged to visit http://travel.state.gov to view individual Travel Advisories for the most urgent threats to safety and security. Please also visit the website of the relevant U.S. embassy or consulate to see information on entry restrictions, foreign quarantine policies, and urgent health information provided by local governments. Travelers are urged to enroll in the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP) to receive Alerts and make it easier to locate you in an emergency. The Department uses these Alerts to convey information about terrorist threats, security incidents, planned demonstrations, natural disasters, etc. In an emergency, please contact the nearest U.S. Embassy or Consulate or call the following numbers: 1(888) 407-4747 (toll-free in the United States and Canada) or 1 (202) 501-4444 from other countries or jurisdictions. If you decide to travel abroad or are already outside the United States: Consider returning to your country of residence immediately using whatever commercial m ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bwjM2lrBlbg
