What an amazing video. I guess they are used to flooding in Bangkok–at least this family seemed to take it in stride.

Amazing how we all learn to cope with what life throws at us. I think with my crew – the girls wouldn’t want to LEAVE the boat as they think water is akin to battery acide, and I don’t see me keeping Toby calm on a canoe! I envision all of us falling in and getting soaked – repeatedly.

I try not to eavesdrop but sometimes I just can’t help it. It can be quite entertaining or even sad. This story about the dogs and the boat is a bit different since they are voluntarily sharing their story. Can you imagine having your house flood and having to stay there because there aren’t any other options? I’m glad to see that they still try to take care of their dogs’ needs despite the difficulties.

I got my fill of eavesdropping when I commuted by bus to grad school. Trust me, hearing what 20 year olds talk about on the bus will ruin your faith in humanity. I did live on the same route as a school for the blind, though, and got to see lots of seeing eye dogs. Not as many as you would expect, but one or two a week.

I wonder why people on planes are less chatty. I’ve never been able to eavesdrop on anything on a plane besides men talking about work.

Sometimes my companions think I am very rude when I eavesdrop on other people, but I can’t help it if people I don’t know are more interesting than people I do know. 🙂

They must have had a videographer follow them! I do love eavesdropping and do it all the time. I could probably start a blog called Overheard. Want to co-host it? What does that say about us eh? Sticky beaks? 😉

That was very interesting – thanks for sharing! It’s nice to see people, on the other side of the world, caring as deeply for their dogs as we do!

It depends, if it’s a good story, I will listen in.

I love eavesdropping on people. I do it everywhere. I get lots of story ideas this way. 🙂

But I can’t remember the best one I’ve heard though….it seems to me it was some time ago.
