How Many People Does It Take To Fill The Back Of A Pick-Up Truck
(Posted on Friday, January 21, 2022)
Taken from journal entries while on what would be our last cruise together. We spent three days in Thailand before boarding ship in February, 2018. My sister would pass away shortly after we returned home in March , 2018. Steve passed in October, 2018. But wait…you know this because you read the book. Uh….you did read the book, right?
Feb., 2018
Observing the roadways and traffic in Thailand is an experience worth the twenty two hour flight. Thai people have no motor vehicle laws restricting the amount of workers that can be crammed into the back of a pick up truck. I counted twenty workers is the norm. A few more if some don’t bring their shovels and rakes.
Motorcycles and motorcycle accidents are abundant. Parking is difficult, traffic in Patong makes the L.A. freeway in California look like a country road in Nebraska. Hence, the popularity of motorcycles. No walking across the street when the light turns green. More like follow the person’s ankles in front of you, and don’t stop until you have reached your destination.
