Shot pic for myself again..
Joe said you took pic again? crazy... 2nd day in paradise... so surprise Joe woke up so early today.. waiting in my bed for him to finish shower and pampering himself made me fall asleep again.. then he jus t told me he'd go to restaurant have breakfast and go snorkeling and let's meet at restaurant.. I had a quick shower rush to see him at restaurant.. couldn't find him there.. so I had breakfast alone and spending time on the island by myself.. walked to the shop bought postcards and wrote to friends..
Joe backed to room at lunch time he said he waited for me at restaurant but couldn't find me.. he told me he went snorkeling saw dolphins.. about 10 of them ... woww.... so I decided to go snorkeling at 14:00 afternoon session. While waiting for Joe to finish shower and go to have lunch together.. Lunch's great same as usual.. just only I bored the food there.. miss thai food very much.. still Japanese & Korean food are enough for me to survive...
Didn't take much pictures today.. since I didn't bring laptop with me so I'm afraid I'll run out of space in camera >_<
At 14:00
sharp, told him i'll go snorkeling he said to wait about half an hour coz the boat will be late anyway.. I still need to wait near the port.. So many people waiting to go snorkeling.. many Japanese & Chinese couples keep putting sun block lotion on their body.. lucky for me that only suntan oil SPF 15 can protect me from getting burn.. that's enough..
2 speedboats arrived, people rushed to get in, I walked in and sat near captain, chubby dark skin Maldevian with sunglasses, sitting inside.. smell of engine oil.. oh realized I made mistake choosing to sit there.. first thought wanna see how I drive speedboat but then I changed my mind.. and still I saw Japanese & Chinese couples keep putting sun block lotion on.. wonder how many bottles in total they'd spend for entire trip.
Finally we started to get going, passing crystal clear turquoise water into darker royal blue sapphire water color, sitting on the boat listening to a Chinese couple next by me talking about the trip.. noticed the girl's so cute, good shape, curly red colored permed hair..
Finally the speed boat stopped at snorkeling area, looking at
the water, the area seems not too deep. Talking to the captain about dolphins Joe has seen in the morning and hope we can see them again in the afternoon... guess dolphins were interested to see what we were doing..
ah.. don't wanna say this but I started to get scared a bit.. well being alone at the middle of Ocean... hope I won't find any dangerous creatures. around 8 years ago, back till when I was in University, traveling with Uni friends including Joe in Pattaya.. at that time I'd got attacked by Jelly fish.. very scary.. hurt & burn.. but still I love snorkeling anyway.. Walked in the captain, seeing me hesitated to jump into water.. he said he'd help letting me into water.. nice.. thank you..
Snorkeling is ok here, not so fancy like in Andaman, dead corals, not many fish, think the staffs pick the wrong place for snorkeling 😞 Perhape it's good place for scuba diving not snorkeling, suddenly I heard people shouting, didn't know what happen... shark? or what? I looked around for awhile checking if there's any panic on anybody face.. mmm everything seem normal.. so I go on snorkeling quite
awhile before decide to get back on boat.. Now I thinking about Koh Similan or Koh Surin for snorkeling..
Back on boat, talking to the captain he said dolphins came.. did you see them? Really? oh that's why people shouting.. oi.. I was so closed to see dolphins.. really sad.. lost my contact lens while snorkeling too.. hardly see totally bad luck..
Got back to room, Joe's sleeping again... anyway.. I just shower and get ready to see nice sunset.. after finish dress up, Joe decided to go together .. nice...
Walking to Lagoon suits again... taking pictures of sunset.. and Lagoon suits in the evening.. so beautiful.. so bad my camera couldn't capture all its beauty.. while I enjoyed sunset Joe suddenly saw shark.. small one.. baby shark.. oh.. the mother has to be near here... not long until sun goes down, we went to center nearby restaurant playing ping pong... good exercise.. made me more hungry.. oi had to wait so long for dinner..since it's 2 hours difference with Thailand time..
Finally dinner time!!! again... meat eater like me.. of course I go for beef.. cheese & sweet corns tasted good to me too..
then some sushi and japanese rice with a bottle of red wine same as usual.. I ate a lot.. and Joe started talking about burning FAT again.. oii.. alright let's do it.. after finish dinner we went back to the room get change and out to swimming pool... wow.. it's full moon tonight.. very bright beautiful moon.. in swimming pool oh such a perfect romantic atmosphere.. hahaha.. anyway.. then Joe said.. I should swim about 5 laps just to burn out what I ate today... ah? ok 5 laps doesn't sound too difficult.. when I get used to water temparature.. I started my first lap oh.. quite tired.. didn't excercise for so long.. had to rest like 5 mins wonder whether I can be able to finish 5 laps as Joe said.. Anyway.. finally 5 laps done... felt like almost die.. but.. felt great at the end.. I definitely will come to swim again..
