Yes, the point was explaining the difference between booking multi-city flights and not.

Book on a sea cruise, better chance of not getting clouded out. Don't wait, find a real eclipse chasing company too. Worth the bit of extra expense

Luigi big shaman. Know when sun go out. Urh.


I think Taxexile's comments are accurate, actually.

So is tripadvisor etc. I was wondering if anyone here, such as VocalNeil had a personal knowledge and/or recommendations. ..

I see you've had no joy with the response there Willy....

Try adding Travel Lodge, Premier Inn, Tune hotels and Blarney Caravan Park to your query and I'm sure Luigi's momma will step up to the plate with a few hundred recommendations.

That woman could even show you how to stare at a total eclipse lying on your back without raybans after half a century of budget hotel star gazing 60 watt light bulbs

Oh boy. Do you think I'm a TEFLr?

Put-Down Fail Extreme Edition.


Now, to get back on topic, there's actually a full solar eclipse due in Hua Hin in August 2016 when Daffodil Jr. comes over and walks along the beach.

Hey Grumpy, it's been awhile since you posted.

I saw mention in the Jakarta post today.

In South Sumatra, the province’s Culture and Tourism Agency acting head Irene Camelyn Sinaga said that the Ampera Bridge in the provincial capital of Palembang would be turned into a culinary center presenting local specialities on March 9.

“The bridge will be temporarily closed and turned into a venue to observe the total eclipse,” Irene said recently as quoted by Antara news agency.

The bridge, according to Irene, will be closed from midnight to noon on March 9. While waiting for the total eclipse to occur at about 7 a.m., local time, Irene said that visitors could enjoy breakfast on the bridge.
