Safe Travels

Alright team -- the time is upon us. Most of you will be leaving for Thailand sometime in the next 48hrs. Others are already there or on their way.

Susanna and I leave early tomorrow (thu) morning from NC. We will be largely out of communication until we arrive at the hostel in Bangkok on Friday night.

If you experience travel delays or problems, there are several ways to get a message to us.

1) Call the Suk 11 Hostel at +66 02-253-5927 and ask for Susanna or JB OR leave us a message

2) Call Duncan Russell, who arrives late Thursday evening, at +01 336-253-2776

3) Call Global Village Habitat office in Thailand 800-422-4828 ext7530 (M-F 8am-5pm EST) or cellular emergency hotline is 1-229-938-6999

4) Call Global Village Office in Bangkok at +66 26640644 or on mobile (Candi) at +66 89-968-2040

5) You can email Susanna and JB but we won't be able to check email until Saturday morning at the earliest

Also our team cell number is +66 86-329-3592, but we won't have this phone on us until late afternoon (17:30) Saturday.

Reminder: For those in town by Saturday evening please plan to meet in the lobby of the Suk11 hostel at 6:30pm for a brief team meeting then our first official team dinner!

Unofficial team lunch: For those in town earlier Saturday that would like to meet up/hang out before the official start of team activities let's plan to meet at Noon in the lobby of Suk11. We can go out and grab a bite to eat and perhaps do a little sightseeing in the afternoon if people are up to it (i.e. not too jet-lagged).

For those getting in late on Saturday night: We may or may not see you when you arrive at the hostel. If we don't see you that night then Susanna and JB will be sure to be in the lobby of Suk11 at 9am on Sunday morning -- for those people that we didn't see on Saturday please plan to meet us there at 9am so we can discuss the plan for going to the airport (we will likely be leaving the hostel sometime in the 10-11am range -- we're taking a big van or two to the airport together for our flight to U.T.)

OK, that's all we can think of right now.

We wish everyone a safe journey and look forward to starting our adventure with you soon.

Cheers, Susanna and JB
