Hey you crazy kids!
Just a quick hello from a super hot Bangkok. Today is a quiet day so its admin kinda stuff for us to catch up on!
Koh Tao was amazing! We are both now advanced divers and swan with loads of biiiig sharks. I am happy to report that all limbs are still in tact! Actually, the sharks were so slow and graceful, you didn't feel threatened by them at all. On my first deep dive, I followed the dive master to the bottom of the buoy line and there were 4 grey reef sharks circling the line, each about 3 metres long! We just waited there for a good 5 minutes watching them move around and underneath us, it was so incredible!
Actually the whole week we were in Koh Tao was incredible. We met so many cool people and had such a good time. We were both really sad to leave. Massive thanks must go to Scuba Junction who were top class all the way through. Check out www.scuba-junction.com . Trust me guys, if anyone ever fancies it, this is the only place to dive in Thailand! We will definitely be going back there someday but for now we must look ahead!
Its going to be a real busy month for us. We are just waiting on our visas for Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos so we have a week to kill. On Sunday we head to Kanchanaburi to check out the river Kwai and the famous Death Railway. Then once we have collected our visas and passports from Bangkok its going to be pretty much non-stop until December when we fly out to Oz. Hopefully we will manage to squeeze in a few more days for r and r along the way!
I have posted a few more pics of Koh Tao including the most amazing sunset! I couldnt decide which pic to post so I had to put a new album on the site! And yes, I did take all the pictures myself!
Bangkok looks pretty cool (actually its really hot!) but we have not been out adventuring yet. We hope to fit in some Thai Boxing at some point which should be fun. Im really preferring to go out and live the places we go to a little, rather than do the touristy thing and take pictures all the time. No ladyboys yet but we were invited to a sex show last night. We declined (but only cos the drinks would have been too expensive! hahaha!).
Hope everyone is well.
Keep smiling,
Tom.
