Subject: Post: Finnair Thai number actually answered in the morning after queuing for some 15 minutes and quickly changed our flight to 12.02. Seems like Finnair allows unlimited amount of changes until the end of February, so if we get bored here earlier we can change the flight to a bit earlier again or then to a week later. Our freshly extended visa is only valid until 19th and cannot be easily extended without more difficult paperwork, so that's the last possible day to exit the country. However, the dive center rumours say some people have already been here like two years due to covid-related eased extension rules.. :)The other Iryna (the one living in Bangkok and met in Phuket) is also planning to come to Koh Tao, so at least we have more company to be stuck on the island. I think a week or two more on the island would be nice before moving onwards. When my work starts on 24th we should probably attempt to at least find a hotel with better internet connection or move to mainland, as internet is always a bit slow on these islands.Iryna was still not completely recovered of our stomach problems in the morning, so I had to go diving alone again. Two more dives on the same sites as yesterday with a bit worse visibility but on a better boat. One sea snake and the usual fish and that's it. I think tomorrow I'll take a day off from diving and we could see around the island a bit. Latitude: Longitude: Security Code:
