The Perhentian Islands are in a different league to Tioman, and this tainted our view of the island somewhat. Some friends of ours stayed on tioman and loved it..... but id advise you to fly to kota bharu and go to the perhentians....the diving is unbelieveable (we didnt dive....snorkelling we saw turtles/sharks ect), the water is clearer and its alot cheaper!! Has a much better vibe aswell......our favourite beach place on the road so far!! Both places there are speed boats....3 hours to tioman and 90 mins to the perhentians.

Hey Guys! I'm glad things are working out for you in Sydney. The Flat sounds great, good luck with the move in! Paul and I are in Adelaide at the mo after a mamoth journey through the outback - it was incredible though! We're looking forward to catching up again and telling you all about it soon! Lots of love, Kirstie xxx

We could both def. do with a bacon sandwich, but as it is largely Muslim here there is a lack of pork. You can get chicken ham though - yum! As for your comment on the nose flute it is no comparison to my whistling beak! xxxx

Diving
Hi Lou, As I am only a scuba diver and not a fully fledged PADI diver I will def. check out the watercolours dive place! In Ko Toa there were so many people in our group, so would be good to learn in a smaller group. If I don't pass there is always snorkling, which is meant to be great too. I think Mark likes it that I haven't passed as he says he can get away from me, I said going 30 metres under water is a bit extreme!!!Thanks for the info. Lots of love xxxx

Diving!
YO! FANTASTIC - soo pleased you've learnt to dive - it's just fab isn't it. You MUST go to Perentian Besar - the watercolours dive place is BRILLIANT - you know how i raved on when you were here. The diving is just breathtaking and they're really professional. There's loads less people, and it's much more relaxed than in Koa Toa so they can give you more time and support. If you need to finish you're PADI Tirx, i'd recommend doing it there. The snorkelling is also top-notch. lots of love xxx

Stunning pictures!
Wow! So much done and only 2 weeks into your trip. Great blog btw, I'll only be viewing it on sunny days in the future as it can be somewhat depressing otherwise. Take care and keep up the stubbornness :D

Not my cup of tea.
Mark might think I'm girly, but I'd say sensible! Take me to the market to look at handbags any day!

Sick of scammers!
I know it becomes a right pain after a while when people are just trying to pull the wool over your eyes. You feel like saying I'll give you some money but just take me to where I want to go and stop lying and wasting my time!!!

Hey Guys! I was so excited when I saw that you had posted a new blog! I love reading them and seeing what you're up to - reminds me of our trip which seems so long ago now! I also got incredibly excited when I read that you found the lighthouse from Round the Twist - I used to love that show! I'm looking forward to hearing what you think about NZ - if you want any tips check out our old blogs, but if you get the chance then Abel Tasman National Park, Mt Cook National Park and Milford Sound are all places that should not be missed on the South Island. Plus, if you're in to doing scary things, try and do a sky dive over the glaciers - looks amazing! Also, Ice Climbing on the glaciers is amazing. Any ways, keep them coming! Hope you're both well? Lots of love! xxx
