Good luck for the Falang....................... They have life vests onboard, but are there any hungry sharks around Patts ???

 

Never heard of any shark attack, but still do not like the idea to hear : abandon ship !!!!

 

I know there is a lot of traffic to Koh Larn, not know for sure so many in this low season, but I am happy that i was NOT a passenger.

 

 

Kind of Good Karma for me.
