Winter vacation is coming up quickly - more quickly than we'd realized. Fuel surcharges and other factors resulted in us cancelling our plans to go to North America, and we sort of figured we'd stay in Japan. However, after some extensive online searching, we found a fairly cheap flight to Thailand.
Though we've both been to Thailand at least three times before, the deal on the tickets (China Airlines) was too good to pass up. Of course, hours after our purchase we turned on CNN only to see the headlines that Thailand is experiencing some political unrest and anti-government supporters have seized both Bangkok airports. Ha!
Well, I'm fairly confident that the airports will be reopened in the next few days, and definitely by the time we're ready to fly in three weeks.
