No Ferries Again Today

[H2oDunc]

I have just spoken to Seatran, Raja are not answering, and was told that no ferries are running today again. Not looking good for tomorrow either so its another night in Khanom.

Not too much of a hassle for myself but for those with planes and travel arrangements to keep it is a pain. Is the airport open today ?

- fully refund without any charge

- rebooking to the same fare and have to travel before 30 April 2011 or upgrade to higher fare without any changing fee but still pay for the differential fare

Sorry for the inconvenience

Went into town, or tried to for a supply run to the 7/11 This is what we found.

The river is up to just under the roof of the houses next to it. The road where the 7/11 is is under about 4ft of water and rising and it is blowing a hooly still.

Ended up in a small Mum and Pop shop who seemed very happy to see us A few pictures here

Lets hope it blows itself out tonight and we can get home tomorrow.

Phoned Lomprayah Ferries for someone, today... They are not running & he said probably not tomorrow either....

The number in case anyone wants : 081 5367162 it took some poking around their web site to find....and a few tries to get an answer...

Looking at the weather predictions, probably not much will change until Thursday or Friday.....

(I know this won't help you Dunc... have fun in Khanom)

Cheers Jimmy. We aren't looking to get back to Samui till Friday / Saturday. I at least here have electric and internet etc yet at home have none. Staying here seems a better option looking at the TV reports of Samui.

The Thai Navy is on the way to rescue the trapped Farangs so no worries there. They are supposed to be starting to airlift trapped Farangs from the islands to a carrier and then to BKK.
