Weeeerrrrreeeee BAAAACCCCCKKKKKKK!!! It seems like ages since we put anything on the blog but it's only just over a month. We finally put some pictures of Bangkok on so check them out when you get a chance.
We havent uploaded any recent pictures as we havent taken any... we will and we will upload them promise! What have we been up to??? Well we left Bangkok and went off to find a Dive School we liked enough to complete our Dive Master's with. We went to Phukey first...great for a week on the beer but there was no way we could stay there for a couple of months we'd of gone mad. Then we headed to Ko Phi Phi.....the most beautiful place in Thailand so far and the most over developed. The picture attached is of Phi Phi it's probably taken with a narrow lense because there's 12 restaurants to the left and 9 massage parlors to the right!!! Seriously though it is lovely just a little bit too popular. Heck were planning to go back so it's not that bad! Anyway we decided it was too busy (are we getting old?) for us so we headed up to Khao Lak about 103 kms north from Phucket and 200 from the Burmese border. The are was hit badly in the Tsunami and now most businesses are on the main road through town about 5-10 minute walk to the beach. We finally splashed the cash and started our dive master training with Sea Dragon dive centre in the 28th of October. Today is the first day off so making the most of it! We have been studying like crazy as we have lots of dive theory exams as well as the practical stuff. We hope to be qualified by mid December at the latest so that we can begin to find work. We are right on the Surin and Similan Islands and the diving is awesome and work includes taking a group of certified divers out to the islands for 3-4 days on a Liveaboard boat showing them the dive sites etc. Not bad work if you can get it and if we're lucky we might earn enough money to be able to eat twice a day!!!! If anyone fancy's a dive holiday let us know we get a good discount. What are out plans from here?!?!?! Well we'll probably spend Christmas and New Year here then who knows,let's see what happens. Bye for now.... Emma and Jay x x x x x x
