We just finished our four day scuba diving course here on Koh Tao, we are now certified! what an amazing experience it was. scary at first, lots to learn and getting used to but once out in the ocean with all the fish there was nothing to worry about. I will upload the movies that we have out in the deep blue so that you can experience what we did, but for now you will just have to imagine swimming with nemo!
We met some amazing people here on the island that are traveling as well. An aussie as well, now we have a friend when we head down under!
Here are more pictures for all of you to get jealous of...enjoy!!!!

Everything looks so beautiful, it's a dark, cold, rainy day here, your pics warm me up. Keep them coming, looking forward to seeing NEMO. Love mom and dad
ReplyDeleteYour pictures put the WOW factor to a whole new level. Where did the huge boulders come from? Earthquakes? I can't wait for you to talk us through these pics. Outstanding Jen
