Then in the middle of the night I was awoken by Nichole who was distraught, "Tracy, do you know where my American phone is? I use it as an alarm, and Ben can't find his passport with all his money that was in my top drawer." No. I had no idea. "I think we were robbed!" After a friend stopped by in the middle of the night to help, He and Ben dealt with filing a police report with the drunken Thai police. This is really scary! They didn't take much, and the things taken were weird random things that were hard to find: An American phone with no SIM card behind Nichole's bed, a passport with money inside of it in a drawer, and a playstation in a bag which was completely concealed. They did not take my wallet and passport right by the door, nor the money scattered on table tops, nor the laptop, t.v., playstation 3, or computer...???
It doesn't make sense! We can't help but look at the construction workers with skepticism, and the little old man next door who keeps watch while he runs his store saw nothing. Today is a stressful day. I want to help, but don't know what to do. Oh! and the kicker is I accidentally broke their fan this morning!I feel like a jink, and that hurts my heart. *sigh* So, we're just trying to deal with this stress. Ben has to drive a few hours to and from BKK to visit the Embassy and get a new passport and visa, contact the MVD in the UK for a new drivers license, and contact the bank for a new money card. Nichole's lost phone numbers are invaluable. She said the Thai's love phone's because they can switch out the SIM and sell the phone, but this one you can't remove a SIM, so they probably just tossed it. :(
