Rings around the world
Being back on Ko Tao as once again proved to be another amazin time for us all. Me, Lucy, and Laura came back across on sunday last week, the girls wanted to do some standard adventure dives, and i got myself onto the advanced PADI diving course. As i'd already been here we went straight back to where i stayed last time at Asia divers.. and met up with Dave, Mani etc and have basically dived, eaten like kings, drank and chilled all week.
As me Laur and Luce have been sharin a room, which has been great, its been good to have the boys around to stop me becoming a full on woman... The talk of periods, lady parts, gooches, hair, make up and shoes and questions such as 'which earings should i wear with this dress' and 'do i look pregnant in this?', slowly caught up with me and before i knew it i found myself with my small toe nail painted pink- much to the amusement of the rest of the divers. And.. just for the record they are both probably the most untidy people i have ever met.. and thats saying something considering my rooms normally a s*** hole.
Diving wise ive now passed my Advanced PADI diving, and i finally got to swim about 6 feet away from a group of sharks.. absolutley amazin stuff. I did however manage to get lost whilst doing my navigation dive.. I Shat myself down at 25 metres in the middle of the ocean, when i couldnt find anyone.. Am still alive though so its not all bad.
We got some bikes out a few times, and choppered it round the island checking out some more remote places. Unfortunately i stepped back into the exhaust of mine after a long ride, and duely stuck my leg to it for a split second, as it was f***ing hot.. I now have a nice big burn/blister on my calf which has only just started to scar. Im told you cant leave Thailand without one so i guess i have my island scar (dont fancy any more though).
I realised it was time to cover it up whilst diving when i looked down to see a couple of fish eating away at my blister.. i s*** myself, threw up in my regulator (the thing you breath through) and quickly swam off in disgust. Lucy duely crashed my bike later on in the week, absolutley s*** my pants when Laura came running over to say Luce had fallen off.. thought the worst.. luckily she was just shaken, and the bike was ok.. ish.. didnt have to pay any excess on it though!!
Dave and Mani have now headed home back to the Uk, and unfortunately me and the girls have been shacked up in our room for the last two days because of a stomach bug. We were originally supposed to go over to Krabi on Saturday, however we havent been able to do anything due to the constant need to crap all day and night. The girls said that their stomach cramps were worse than period pains, so mine must have been like what its like to give birth.. albieit to brown water. The last days have however, shown the girls in a new light.. watching them both walk in and out of the bog every five minutes, sweat pouring from their brow.. i think ive seen it all now. Luckily we had a tv with movie channels so thats all we've done really other than poo.
We're passed the worst of it now, so we've bought our ticket to Krabi and we travel down tonight, getting there tommorow morning.
Thats about all i can think of for now, although ill let you know when i add more pictures.. diving ones, and the full moon party pictures, i didnt take my camera out so im waiting for the ones from the boys before i put them on. Hope you like the web page thing, all my pics are on so far, and theres a message board so you can log on to speak, or easier just email me. Love you all me x
