Creator Transcript
  • Nov [November] 30 [1957] Bangkok The final sessions were held this morning. I had to give the main address of thanks. It seemed to go quite well. Joyce [Cowan] + I shopped in the PM [evening] Dec [December] 1. [1957] Bangkok. Went on the joint excursion of the Zool. [Zoology], Fisheries, Oceanogr. [Oceanography], + Botany Sections to Ko Kram [Khram] ([Ko Tao] Turtle Isl. [Island]) in Gulf of Siam. We left the hotel at 6AM + drove some 110 km [kilometers] to breakfast at Bang Phra Resevoir [reservoir] then went on to the Naval Training station at Sattahip. Here we embarked on the Oceanography vessel (400 tons) via landing craft + sailed out of the harbour 1 1/2 hrs [hours] to Ko Kram [Khram], here a very amusing + completely haphazard landing took place. Saw 2 sea turtles + quantities of young brought from the hatchery for release. Licensees must turn over 30% of the eggs for hatching. Had a swim in water of 82 [degree symbol] + very high salinity. Photographed a beach legume Canavalia [underlined] + collected Thuaria involuta
