started off the day snorkelling! loads of jellyfish but they dont sting luckily...........only found out after getting one in my face!! decided to try diving so did an introductory course! there were only two of us with the australian instructor (kieran - who turned out to be really cool guy). had to tip out of the boat backwards like you see on the films!! equipment so heavy for me as im small but once in the water its ok. instructor held our hands the whole time which made it less scary! picked up loads of star fish and sea cucmbers!! was so good...its so different to snorkelling...actually being down there! fish are not scared as they just think you are a fish too!! learnt all the hand signals and how to get water out of mask whilst underwater!! quite difficult to prssurise ears at first as you have to do it so often! next day met a really nice girl called helen who had been travelling in new zealand for a year! spent day on beach with her until it was time to go on the 'wana taki' cruise......another big yellow boat!! had a free night here and when i went to get on laura, janine and jamie were all there....yay!!! so good to see them again!! and so nice to be in an air con dorm for a night with a hot shower! only probl;em was they lost my bag in the 100m between the island and the boat!!! all i had was what i was wearing! (bikini and shorts)!!! oh no!! they found my bag on another boat but i didnt get it till the next morning! luckily everyone on the boat lent me their things!! that evening i saw an octopus in the sea but when i showed the driver of the boat he decided to spear it to eat......it was really sad but i suppose its the way they live?! decided to head back to manta ray as am going to do my dive certificate!!
