Thanks for your help everyone. It seems like I should stay at the Oriental. I'm sure the Four Seasons is very nice too. There will be a very important guest at the Four Seasons during part of the time I'm in Bangkok so I won't even try to go near there.

Marcie, Mona is not coming along. I would extend my stay if she were able to come. But she has some problems to deal with at her job. And besides, at this late date business air would cost almost $10,000. Tom.
