Hi John, I was hoping that this would not happen... The waters have been devastating that's for sure from the images I have seen.

Hi John.
That's sad news for the Thai people and for the bonsai of Thailand as well. I was planning to visit Montries garden resort next year...I hope the Thais could recover fast. We Filipinos just experienced that kind of flood just recently, and is was very traumatic specially if it hits the major city centers.

Stay well and safe my friend.

unexpected huge floods like this are becoming more frequent.

It makes me sad to see these events unfold. I have been there my self, all I can offer is there is always tommorow and with the rising sun comes hope for a new day, and every day passing gets better and better.
Hang in there!

Will send prayers and good thoughts for a speedy recovery for all.

The hardest part is yet to come for all affected. They are in my prayers.
