Nice photos Talen. What camera did you end up with? I remember that you arrived with a suitcase full of newness

Pics say it all for this day. a very wet day indeed.

I noticed that slideshow mode does not work. Is there an app for that?

Cat – that learning Thai via Skype is a wonderful idea. Khun Narisa is definitely an early adopter, picking this tech. 7 years ago. Brilliant.

Thanks Joe. I’m enjoying it a great deal (well, except for hearing my own voice in the recordings after).

And looking at Talen’s photos remind me what a pain it can be to get around Thailand in the rainy season. So taking Thai via Skype makes even more sense.

Cat, the newest camera is a Sony A330…unfortunately I missed all the best pics today. Every time I would put it back in the bag thinking there was nothing to shoot an amazing photo opportunity would materialize and be gone in a few seconds.

Joe, the slideshow mode only comes into play when I post the pics as an album not when I post them individually.

Talen is that rain….or did you leave your apartment front door open.

The sight of Pattaya, even in a storm, makes me pine a bit.

The photos?….South Pattaya Road near to the Soi Buakhao turning.

Martyn, My apartment flood had more water

Dead on with your assessment…just across from tukcom at the motorcy dealer on the corner.Was on my way home when caught in the downpour…I called Pookie to make sure it wasn’t coming from our place.

Five things that changed Talen’s life:

He feels right at home in the rainy season.
The Royal meteorological engineers open a branch office in his building.
Homepro starts selling giant stoppers called the Talen.
Waterpik releases a new line of showerheads called Talentech.
TAT, seeing a new tourism initiative, park a bamboo Ark outside his building.

You ain’t heard the last of this

Rick, may your first days in country be less wet. Fortunately for me I registered my condo as a water park and am now making 200 baht per head

Rain is only water. It helps clean the streets of Patatya and makes for a good fun night if you get stuck in a bar complex. Now, if they could just fix the sewers, it would be great.
