Update April 12, 2017

Hello all;
All arrangements are now in place for my next adventure which will start in about 24 hours from now. For the first time in my travels, I will be travelling via Hong Kong. I must state, however that my time in that city will be limited to six hours at the airport; three hours going and three hours on the return. For the first time also, I will be taking a night flight. We will depart Toronto at 02;00 in the morning and arrive in Honk Kong at 05;00 their time after a 14 hour flight...all in the dark ahead of the sun. I use the term "we", meaning the flight, as I am travelling alone, but with two hundred others!. I have window seats all the way, 66A from Toronto  on Cathay Pacific flight 829,and 55A from Hong Kong to Bangkok on same airline, flight 705.
So, I will depart Ottawa at eight in the evening on 13 April and after a one hour flight, arrive in Toronto. At 0150, we depart for Hong Kong. I will do an update as soon as possible after my arrival, but, perhaps some rest, and for sure a Thai Massage will be in order, or should I say "on order". I have had people try to walk over me in my lifetime, but that is not the same as a Thai lady walking all over you in her bare feet!.
As well as work in Bangkok, I will be visiting Chiang Mai in northern Thailand, and other things yet to be determined.
On the night of May 13, friends from Bangkok will be taking me to dinner at one of the most exclusive restaurants in Bangkok. It is a restaurant located at the 88 floor of the Baiyoke Tower.
If interested, you can Google this place and see what it looks like. It is one of the highest buildings in Thailand.
