Chiang Mai Floods,
Our Compound on Faham Rd

Looking down onto the 'drive'	Paulette wading out to go buy some stuff	Paulette wading out	Wading further out
And, further out!	Some of the neighbour boys making the most of the flood and 'surfing' with a piece of styrofoam	The flood receding from the living room	The rug was too big to move and is a write-off
Aftermath: the prayer room bathroom	Aftermath: the prayer room, the bottom drawer of the cupboard was under water	Aftermath: the sofa bed in the prayer room seems to be okay	Aftermath: the bottom of the frig (including the compressor) was under the water but has dried out okay and works!
Aftermath: my car	Aftermath: inside of my car	The waters recede slowly	The sludge left behind by the receding waters
More of the sludge left behind	As the waters receded we found the river bank higher than the compound... so we ended up with fairly deep standing water	The sludge on the drive as the water receded	The standing water is being pumped out into the river and is slowly receding. It is still ankle deep at the gate and around the house (17 Aug 05)
