Passage to Bangkok

December 12, 2010

To paraphrase an expression used by cruising sailors “Nothing goes to weather (upwind) like a Boeing 777.”  It was an easy “passage” on Thai airlines from Brisbane to Bangkok.  The boat was hauled last Monday and we had been living on the boat on the hardstand for four nights.  It was up and down the ladder to use the bathroom.  We had lots of work to do under the boat but got it done just in time to leave for the airport.

Here are some photos of Bangkok, plus one of Sabbatical III getting hauled.  Click to enlarge the photo:
