Hallelujah.
After 2 days for them and 3 months for me, Jacquie and Sami have made it here, safe and sound.
After a bit over 20 hours in a travel crate without incident, in true Sami style he spent a few minutes in the park at Suvarnabhumi Airport to find the perfect spot for a pee. It all went off as it was supposed to with the dog - everyone was great. Now after swims for both, wife and dog are sleeping at the beach - well deserved I'd say.
This is going to be interesting for Sami. The circus has come to town, and Sami the dog faced boy is the star attraction. These people have never, in their entire lives, EVER, seen a dog this big. Gasps and exclamations everywhere. They really do think he's a freak. I'd say that conservatively one to two hundred Thais now know his name. About a dozen have photos. Some younger children aren't so afraid, but their parents quickly pull them away and shield them from the monster.
People here told me beware, the wild dogs will rip him apart. At a rest stop in the middle of the all night drive last night Sami tried to make friends with a few of them. They started coming towards us, then all turned tail and ran away, seemingly thinking "What the hell was that?"
A long trip for everyone.
David happy. Now.
