Train: there is a 6:30 pm overnight train,clean and comfortable, that leaves from Bangkok's Hualomphong Station. You can buy a train + ferry ticket package a day in advance(approx.800 baht) from travel agencies on Kao San Rd. You will arrive at 6 am in Surat Thani and catch a connecting bus to the ferry which leaves 8-9 am. You arrive in Tong Sala on Koh Phangan at 12-1 pm.
This is the problem... We should have bought the tickets the day before our journey, which is today! Man, we are looking at a long journey tomorrow night huh. x Karl On Jan 30, 2008 2:58 PM, Christian Snodgrass <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > There is another possible outcome which is positive. > > It's more likely (assuming they get the info about the meta-tag out > there) that new sites will be developed using this meta-tag and > standards-compliance.
