I take it the taxi wasn't an EV... :-) Reminds me of being on Ko Lanta circa 95 when the island became Venetian in a matter of minutes.

a good old fashioned combustion engine, thankfully. I wonder how those EV coke cans will fare in monsoon season here. We shall see.

The islands have the most intense storms for sure. Southern Thailand is pretty much rainy season all year round. But at least the air is more breathable with the green AQI scores.

The Thai noises are more like "uh-hooo" (rising intonation, surprise or disapproval), "oooeeiii" (high tone, excitement), "whoooo" (low tone, very negative disapproval)...been here so long I now make them too.
