Shocked, grateful, wow!

Hello all! I just got back from a fun trip with my college friends though yesterday morning (my last day out of Bangkok), my heart sank to get a call from our housekeeper that my neighbor's house across from our home, which is just one-car-lane wide, was on fire when there was nobody at that house.

The other next door neighbor saw the smoke so he called for assistance. The firemen came within 13 minutes. Thank goodness our neighbor was really prompt and the firemen were fast and efficient (though not so thorough to make sure it was truly extinguished.) In any case, my sister-in-law had her sa-ti and everything was back to normal some time later.

We all feel grateful to the help especially to our neighbor who took the immediate action. I decided to line my family members about it. They called to ask my sister-in-law and one brother stopped by..... really great moral support for our sister-in-law and our housekeeper ka!

The cause was from the old electrical system. Several neighbors talked about it and one stopped her car to chat.

What was also nice is that about 10 o'clock this morning, there was a van from the District Office, going around the whole soi to alert us all to check our own electrical systems and offer to help check as needed.

We now feel even safer living here and feel closer to our neighbors ka.

Despite the shock, the incident offered a few wow's for me loei ka!
