Well, its quite typical of a foreigner living in Thailand to have to make a visa run - which is basically what you do when your visa for living in Thailand runs out. You need to leave Thailand and then reenter and depending on what type of visa you have will determine how many additional days you receive. Most people that live in Mae Sot cross the border here, but it was closed due to trade and building disputes with Burma - so I had to travel North. After 10.5 hours on the bus I made it to Mai Sai which is another border crossing with Burma in the North. The one benefit of this border is the super cheap DVDs! My visa got stamped and I'm good for another 90 days in Thailand - then another visa run :)
Glad it worked out kid. Look forward to more pics of The Sot soon ;)
