So Last night I was having a wonderful meal in a very nice restaurant when we heard what we thought was a loud clap of thunder.................
It was a bomb. Yards from my hotel. Thankfully I made a few decision that meant I wasn't in the wrong place at the wrong time. I decided not to check in before going to the restaurant. I decided not to walk, but accepted a lift (I would have been walking the street where bomb went off at the time it went off), and a decision had been made to eat in the restaurant and not the Hotel.
So if I was religious, would I have put those events down to coincidence, or be praising my sky daddy for looking after me??
I have now booked a hotel away from the down town area and will continue my trip.
The Thai people are among the most hospitable, friendly people you are ever likely to meet, what we thought was just a thunder clap has in an instant ruined the lives of some of these wonderful people. I hate terrorists who target civilians in this way.
