Didi Devamala and group of 10 children from Baan Unrak Home will be performing in Kuala Lumpur on the invitation of Christian Drapeau http://www.christiandrapeau.com/ and his company http://www.stemtech.com/. Didi has requested my assistance to drive her and the children from Sangkhlaburi to Bangkok to take on an AirAsia flight to Kuala Lumpur. She injured her foot a day before the trip.
For this endeavor,I create some of my personal first.
1. Drive a 6-wheeler truck songthew (see photo)
2. Drive more than 10 people a vehicle
3. Drive solo for 8 hours (4pm till midnight) from West Thailand (next to Myanmar border) to Bangkok.
Due to the blockade by demonstrators, the last leg into Bangkok took longer than normal as we need to avoid the blockade.
We pass through 3 roadblocks and luckily, we were not stopped. I could have landed into trouble for not having the International Drivers license and also not qualified to drive a 6-wheeler.
Despite of her injury, Didi took over the wheel on arrival of Bangkok outskirt as she is familiar with the route to her Bangkok home.
I took a taxi to the hotel that I booked earlier. I have to leave for DMK airport the next day at 6.30 am.
