Will I be able to go on vacation?
The last few weeks I’ve been watching the news about the protesting going on in Thailand, especially that protesters have taken over the airports in Bangkok. With only about 2 weeks before I leave I was worried that I be able to make my flight as booked or I was going to have to find a different way into Thailand. Well as of tonight it appears that things will go smoothly. I just heard that the government has been dissolved, and the protesters have agreed to vacate the airports. So, I’m still a little worried, but at least I’m not planning on making alternate plans. That’s a good thing.

I still have to get my visa for vietnam though. There isn’t an embassy or consulate here in dubai, so I have to go to Abu Dhabi to get it. It’s only about 120 km, but without a car I have two choices, I can rent a car, or take a taxi. I decided to rent, but I had to get my license first… that I did last week. So hopefully I’ll be able to get the visa next week. I know, I’m rambling…
