Dear All:

Just yesterday I was contacted by another classmate who will now attend Homecoming this Jan. Airfare is available from LAX for 750.00 and I have heard of rates as low as 650.00. It takes 7 business days for an expedited passport and no visa is required. So why not take the plunge and join us in BKK? If you need help with airfare call or write me at 615-242-2925 or [email protected]. I will refer you to the agency in CA. that booked my ticket. You can go to the US post office Saturday and request an expedited passport, the cost is about 135.00. The baht is currently around 44.5 baht per US dollar so your money will go a long way in Thailand. ISB is allowing walk up registration for all events. I believe the surcharge is approx. 500 baht. plus the registration fees. You can stay at hotels in Bangkok as low as 30 USD per night. I will be staying at the Bel-Aire Princess for around 45.00. Mark Brandes and I stayed there 10 years ago and loved it!! It is located at the end of Soi 5 and owned and operated by two ISBers. Ok, Ok , I know all of the excuses but why put off the chance of a lifetime. ...Climb the latter, walk out on to the high dive and JUMP!! Don't miss the opportunity of a lifetime..Come to Bangkok and celebrate ISB's 50th Birthday with us.
