Now on the IDC

---

It's been a while since I last posted on my blog, well I've been busy on the IDC (Instuctor Development Course), I spent the tail end of my first week in Koh Tao ill (won't fill you in on the gory details) and doing some studying for the IDC.

We spent 4 days doing prep for the IDC and spent most of the day in the classroom, we're now on day 6 of the IDC and have been doing mock exams to test our theory knowledge, presentations to test our instructional ability, giving confined water lessons and demonstrating skills underwater, as well as giving open water lessons and rescue scenarios. The days have been long with the longest being 07:30-17:00. The group size has grown now to an even 8 and everyone has been doing well on the practical tests.

Weather in Koh Tao has been a bit hit and miss, it's supposed to be the hottest month but it's been raining on and off (not too bad for us as we're in the classroom mainly) but it's been playing havoc with the boats (when it rains, it really rains)
