We took an 8 hour bus journey down the coast to a small town called Chumphon. There we waited two hours while the day dawned...
After a high speed catamaran out to the island, we finally arrived in Koh Tao.
It's been three years since I was first here, and the difference is huge. My favourite bar was gone, demolished to make way for a big dive resort. The beach hut I stayed in was gone, this was in it's stead:
- so we booked into that! 4 euro a night, not bad for Koh Tao.
The day was spent snorkeling for me, and relaxing for Dave. A few beers by the beach then -
We awoke to this guy making an awful racket:
I had booked in a few dives for myself last night, so after a morning snorkel, I went out on the dive boat. I was the only person with them today so it was just me and the dive instructor, pretty sweet! I got on of those poxy wee cameras to take underwater pics, so if I can get digital development on those I'll stick a few up.Check out how clear the sea is:
Sorry folks, it's taken almost an hour to get those few pictures uploaded, the auld internet on the island here wouldn't be the fastest, so I'll have to leave the rest of the pics for another day. The mossies are making light work of me in here too!
The plan is to stay another few days, do a bit more diving and snorkeling for me, and some trekking and cave gawking with Dave.
Hope all are well, and thanks for the comments! :)
