COMMENTS: WE ARE BACK ON OUR ORIGINAL TRACK FROM LANGKAWI BUT HEADED BACK EAST. WE ARE DOING THIS TO GIVE THE STORM BETWEEN US AND SRI LANKA TIME TO GET OUT OF THE AREA. WE WILL TIME OUR TURN AROUND TO REACHING SRI LANKA AFTER THE STORM HAS PASSED. WE WILL MAKE AN UNSCHEDULED STOP IN SL TO ADDRESS A FUEL PROBLEM WE ARE STILL HAVING. AIR IS GETTING INTO THE FUEL LINES SOME HOW AND I CAN’T FIND THE SOURCE. RUTH AND I ARE IN BETTER SPIRITS TODAY AS THE WEATHER HAS CALMED WHERE WE RETREATED TO.
