Hi All

It seems a while since I last updated my blog. We left Koh Phi Phi and moved to Railay (Krabi) we stayed in a fantastic hotel - it was luxury great rooms, resort had a fab swimming pool and great views we were right next to the liquid rocks! There was Mel, Iona and I staying there for 3 nights. Iona left us on the last day so it is just Mel & I now we went on a day trip to James bond Island and the National Park it was great! I've got lots of good photo's.

Mel and I are now at Phuket and this is our 3rd and last night, I have been conducting a Open Water PADI Dive Course the last 2 days so I am offically certified diver now. I had to do loads of test such as underwater (taking my mask off - sharing air - emergency ascent etc) then loads of theory test my brian seriously hurt at the end of the very long day (9am - 7pm). But well worth it I can now dive cheaper and have more skills - I am hoping to do a dive on the great barrier reef. We have been to a theatre show tonight Fantasea - it was fab loads of Thai traditional dancing, Elephants on stage, magic tricks etc a great show!!

We leave for Kuala Lumpor tomorrow and we are staying in a hostel for 4 nights, so I will be in the city for my birthday on the 27th we going to do something special that night (I'll have a second birthday upon my return when I can celebrate with family and friends). We leave for Singapore on the 29th March for 4 nights and then onto Australia for 1 month. I will be back in the UK on the 2nd May.

Still having a great time - I am not sure my Thai mobile will not continue to work so I will prob wait until Oz and buy as Oz sim card and put the number on the blog. Mel and I are still getting on really well :-)

Got to go its well past my bed time - I'll update again at my earliest opportunity!

Love Ali xx
