ok well, sounds like you will be home soon so best of luck to you both. 🙏🏻😎

Make sure you send flowers. Best flowers store I’ve used for years is GoGo Florist. Don’t use Forever Florist.

just had my 5 year last august. Was not there either. 10 years with my wife and never away longer than 3-4 months. My trip from Guam thru Manila is usually 9 hrs but Covid killed that. My wife picks me up In a few days. You will get there soon and be back in the saddle. Sounds like you are doing it right to be comfortable. We also lived in Bangkok the first year together (Thonglor) while I took some Thai language tutoring. Been traveling to Thailand for 20 years. Grew up in Orange County, 25 years in San Diego w a small horse ranch. Hang in there.

understand. I haven’t seen my family in over a year. Been working in Guam and Saipan last 2 years. Typically travel thru Manila but after filing for COE and doing Covid test, all US passport holders thru the Philippines were canceled. Had to fly to HNL to SFO back to Seoul to BKK. 2 full days and nights of travel and layovers. In between , had to get a new approval for COE. Very complicated since they need 5 business days to reap prove and Martin’s tin Luther King day fell in there to boot. Wow, so hang in there. You live in Chiang Mai? I live in Korat

@Rick ****************

ok, good. A little peace of mind to see the delivery progress. Good luck. Where are you traveling from?

@Garrett **********

I was emailed my COE before my passport was returned. Hope you placed tracking on returned preposted envelope. Important.

@Garrett **********

correct, my same experience a few weeks ago. Now in BKK quarantine. Don’t worry Garrett, sounds like you’re in. It will come in time. Make sure you get your COVID-19 test results no more than 72 hrs before departing.

Me too. Can’t wait to be free.

Can’t wait to see my lovely Thai wife of 10 years and my 5 precious dogs 🐕!

Day 10 for me. Already got my first week or two planned once out.
