Stu On Tod
K so havent writen for the last five days!! Basically got to this new island Koh Tao, it is like paradise!! On Earth!! as u can see the pic is the bay I was staying in. Step by step though! I was rudely awaked by this Thai guy who helped to look after my hotel in Koh Samui 'yr boat leaves in 20 minutes,' he says 6:30 in the morning after a ragggy tag tag nite which ended with me taxing at 3 in the morning on the back of some thai motor bike from the main beach back to my room 20 mins away very unique!! Any way so the point being I was raggy tag tag had 20 mins and hadnt packed!! rush, I want breakfast!! ANy walked out the front of my restort which without saying leads straight onto the beach climbed a ramp on to this speed boat with about 30 other westerns all Torists thou not back packers going to a diffrent place to me!! So we skim across to my new island stopping 10 meters from the beach Im expected the vault the side into the water from 3m up and wade to land with all my stuff, while the torists all sit there drinking cocktails.... so i did and i was good! Any way arrived at the resort and met this rly cool bunch of Canadans ended up going to a Thai boxing toriment with them and infact would spend most off my time while not diving for the 5 days chiilin with them in the beach bars round the bay the most chiiled out places i have been to for sure! lying down round the bar drinking and the sea in lapping 3 meters away... If the place was amazing though diving was out of this world!! 20 meters under water with sholes -if thats even how u spell it- fish all round u 1000's strong! + Forget the marine life even though that was amazing just swimming under the sea with the fishes soo gd! The good news is though they made a video of the diving which Im sending home for u all to laugh at!! V funny stuff!! In 1 bit we attempt a James Bond dive which shall i just say some things change and some things dont for now Ill just say 3/4 of the group got it and there where 4 of us ... Any way the divings all in the video best see it then. Had an amazing Birthday, which co-ensided with the last day of diving which was the best thing I could have asked for!! In the evening chilled out with the Cannada peez and crashed out on the bar by the sea woke up hour later and crawled to bed, all in all cool cool. The only problem being that in Thailand when u enter an establisment u take yr shoes off at the door so at some point some 1 obviously decided they liked my shoes more than theirs!! So to cut the story short me and some random traveller i met at a campfire I randomly stumbled across that the plan is I see if I can make it round the world barefoot lol and then when I get back to England I release my book series - Asia Bare foot, Oz Bare foot and South America bare foot, wish me luck so far with no shoes 3 days!! On the Next day i decided to go on a crazy walk to a tall rock I could see i the distance!! After 2 hours of bare foot walking and rock climbing round the coast, I got stuck half way up a rock face, realising the going was getting pretty dangerous I decided to turn back grudgingly!! Only to find the tide had come in even more so what had been the sea lapping round my ankles turn to mp3 player and camera above my head, water half way up me full on wading!! All gd fun!! HAD AN AMAZIng time in Koh Tao cant tell every thing in the journal or I wld have nothing to feed u when i get back! till next time stu xxx
