>> 29 December, 2022. After nearly 2 years of Covid no travel restrictions and armed with a Thai pass, vaccination certificates, evidence of a clear PCR test and confirmation of accommodation and transport to an approved hotel, we were at last able to fly back to Phuket to retrieve Alcedo. After another PCR test at the airport, the taxi from the Boat Lagoon resort picked us up and we were able to take stock of our rather mouldy but otherwise apparently OK boat. At this point, we should like to give huge thanks to Kel and Diane from Hotspot, who checked Alcedo for us during the long Covid after Eva and Paul left the Boat Lagoon and who cleared the cockpit drains and prevented the interior being flooded, taped up leaking windows, rescued electronic equipment from a wet navigation area and sent us regular reports on Alcedo's status. Thank you both so much, we owe you a huge debt of gratitude.
