underwater fun!

had a good week in phuket, although we were all sick excect becky who seems to have super-immunity. thought it was bird flu, but we all seem to be alive still so maybe an over-reaction! was a bit of a shame tho, because i 'd started my advanced dive course, and had to wait around for a few days to try and clear it before i could finish it. so did a wreck dive, 30m- argh!! saw a massive sea-turtle which was well cool- didnt realise they were so big! also a deep dive which was actually less deep but anyway! then an underwater naturalist dive which was loads of fun- learning all the signs for the different fish and trying to identify stuff. saw some lovely fish and ghost pipe fish which was amazing- they look like this

on the last day did 2 more dives. wasn't so good, cos was still stuffed up and had real head pains when going down. the guy on the boat gave me some pills to clear it but i ended up feeling like a zombie for the rest of the day! still, we can all dive now which is great! cant wait for us all to go together next time!
