colonialinnkeeper Posted August 5, 2018 #2 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Must be awful to hear news like this and be on board a ship not knowing if family and friends are o.k. Thinking of them all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canadianbear Posted August 5, 2018 #7 Share Posted August 5, 2018 My daughter is currently in Indonesia for a month of scuba diving. Thank heavens for wifi as she messaged me from Nusa Lembongan saying she was ok but this earthquake felt much bigger than the one she felt the other day when she was in Ubud. Both have had deaths associated with these 2 earthquakes. She said the staff at places where she has been (hostels as she is back packing) have been very good. Of course the worry was Tsunami but thankfully that didn't happen. My heart goes out to all the Indonesian folks-she said they are amazing people, so kind and helpful.

Very happy to hear your daughter is safe as I am sure you worried until she could e-mail, message you. Not surprising to hear how kind and helpful t he locals are to her, as we all know from the ships, the gentle kindness of the INdonesian crew.

canadianbear Posted August 6, 2018 #10 Share Posted August 6, 2018 They've had more large after shocks and reporting over 80 dead. Where my daughter is the pipes are broken so no water. She's still ok though at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
