Just to continue with our lovely return home from latest trip.
Arrived at BNE airport around 7:00pm and I had luggage trolley with 5 bags and wife carrying 2 bags and daughter with us. We were extremely tired as we left Chiang Mai the day before and had 4 flights.
Went to B2 to wait for Alpha parking minibus. There are 3 benches. Couple sitting on 1 bench, teenage boy and sister sitting in another bench and the rest of the bench taken by a bag and their 2 parents sitting on 3rd bench doing things on their phone oblivious to life around them.
The couple on first bench moved over and offered my wife a seat. She said thank you but refused and sat on low railing behind the 3 benches. I'm standing leaning on trolley and the boy gets up to play bouncing a ball and his 2 parents constantly saying something to them and only a little girl and duffel bag occupying entire bench. This went on for 10 minutes until Alpha bus arrived.
I was standing watching all this shaking my head and not looking very happy. I really wanted to tell the parents that the 2 kids had very little hope in life as they were being raised by morons but my wife would not let me say anything.
The parents should have called the kids over and offered one bench to the 3 of us but instead just made sure they were comfortable. I would not have let a 60 year old standing there while I was sitting down.
