After our friends left Ross and I started our Padi Open Water Scuba course on Ko Tao, went on 4 great dives and passed with distinctions. Our instructor was from New Zealand mate and he was tough, quick and absolutely crazy. On the last day of our course Thailand celebrated THE THAI NEW YEAR (13th April...very strange!!). They celebrate the New Year by throwing buckets of water at everybody in their reach...it was pretty hilarious. We where attacked continuously by Thai's running after us with water and us trying to escape! That evening we obviously had a huge party with the Dive Resort guys and girls. For the last week on Ko Tao we relaxed and got even more of a golden tan...jealous hey?
