Vlog 135 - The darkest day in Thailand's recent history
Not many people outside Thailand know the events that took place on the 6th of October 1976, but for Thai's, it is a time to make Merit and pray that things like that never happen again.
I’m a retired Aussie expat living in Thailand with my Thai ladyboy girlfriend. Our Video Blog covers the typical things we find ourselves doing as we build our life together living our life in the suburbs of Bangkok. My fiancée is a post-op ladyboy and we have been together since 2009. I finally moved to Thailand in September 2016 because the 8 years of travelling to see her was taking its toll. We hope we will give you a unique perspective on Thailand life and lifestyle as we go about our daily life and sometimes explore the Land of Smiles.

It's that time again when I need to tell immigration where I live and do the whole 90-day check-in thing. I would have thought getting there an hour earlier than last time would have made the process quicker, but not this time. I had a 90 spot delay in the queue and that took 1 and a 1/2 hours to process.
Anyway, after that, we head off to the IT Square to get a few computer items which I need to run this whole YouTube thing.

My mate Todd found a potential house in Salaya so I pinged Bolt to see if he was up for a ride around so we could check out the location.

It's Friday and it does look like we have a break in the unpredictable monsoon weather. I gave Bolt a nudge on his Line account to see if he wanted to hang out and go for a short ride around Salaya while I checked out a rental property for my mate Todd. If you don't know who Bolt is, he also goes by the name Saifaa which was the nickname he was given when he first came to Thailand 10 years ago. He also has his own YouTube channel which I think is worth checking out and you'll find the link below. This was our first meetup and given the unpredictable nature of the rains in the Thailand wet season, we had no plans to go for a long ride but once we can get some helmet comms sorted out, we do plan to check out more of the local area on our bikes. We did find the property that was listed on the website and shot some footage of the local area for Todd. We then headed out to look at some condo units where Bolt lives but we had to pack away the cameras because the weather looked like it was about to bucket down.
Here's a link to Bolt's channel so check it out!

I was doing a bit of map exploring and noticed there was a Planetarium in Bangkok so went for a visit

You can find some interesting places in Bangkok just by opening up Google maps and zooming in on areas. One that caught my eye was the Bangkok Planetarium and as it has been over 30 years since I've been to one, I thought I would go check it out. I mentioned it to Tim and Ian so we met up at the Down Under Bar for lunch and then headed down.
It is located in the Science Center for Education near Ekkamai BTS Station so very close to easy transport. The admission charge is 25 baht for the Planetarium and another 25 baht if you want to spend some time in the Science Center. All up, for 50 baht, I found it interesting and enjoyed the place.
If you are looking to attend the Planetarium, the English narrated show is the 10am session on Tuesdays. All the other shows are narrated in Thai so to get the most out of it, you need to choose the language that suits you best.

A recent article from Khaosod English titled "CAN FARANGS GET DEPORTED FOR TAKING UP POLITICAL CAUSES HERE?" caught my eye which seemed to make an interesting counterpoint to the video I made last week. Let's take a look at it and test the water.

I'm often given to wonder if anything ever gets done in Thailand with all these holiday events and extended weekends etcetera etcetera! I guess it is a good reason to get all dressed up and show off to the neighbours though. We did get woken up early with firecrackers going off in our moo baan because someone was getting married. For us though, it really is just another day when you're living here in Thailand.

In this vlog, join us as we provide an update on Chanya's brother, who is slowly recovering from a severe head injury. Although he has lost motor function on the right side of his body, we are hopeful that it will improve as the cranial swelling subsides. During our visit to Samut Sakhon, we needed to pick up some medical supplies from the hospital and decided to stop for lunch at the pier. Unfortunately, the meal turned out to be too salty, and I doubt I'll be returning anytime soon. Despite this setback, we had a lovely time enjoying the scenery and catching up on family news. Join us for an insightful and honest vlog about our experiences.
