So after a few very sweaty and strange days in Bangkok! Getting to koh Tao was a bit of mission the train I thort I was goin to get on was full. The next 1 with space wasn't for another 7 hours but thankfully met some English lads so went to the big shopping centre in Bangkok wiv them! The train was a sleeper train that left bangkok at 7.30pm and wen they turned the chairs into beds was pretty comfy! We got off the train at chumpon at 4.30am to catch a bus to the pier then the fast boat only took 1.30 hours to koh Tao and had a stupid amount of air con it was actually so cold I put a jacket on! Met Andy and Chris then spent nearly 6 hours fanny around sorting out where to stay/dive! That night watch the most boring 2 1/2 hour video ever about diving and met the instructor! Today started wiv 2 hours in the class room and then diving in the pool I was useless for the first 15 mins but by the end was fine!
