It was nice to leave the island for a night. It really does makes you appreciate it more when you return. Island life ;-D

So what’s been happening? Well, we had a group of Thai kids (6-12yrs) with their parents for a morning. They wanted a presentation about coral reefs and a land activity, so Tim gave them a lovely little presentation with lots of clips and pictures and then we took them on a beach clean up, logging all the trash that we found. In addition to that, I’d mixed up a couple of trays of cement and put an outline of a fish and turtle and then got the kids to make mosaics by using some of the trash that we had found. I think they enjoyed the morning and learnt a think or two 😉

The last few days the weather has taken a turn and it’s been wet and very windy. So windy that the dive boats haven’t even been going out and that doesn’t happen too often. Where we live, it’s pretty high up and we’re constantly getting huge gusts of wind. Can be pretty frightening …as we have to secure everything down before it blows away ;-D

There is no chance I can cycle in this, I would be blown off my bike. Hopefully in a couple of days, things will calm down and we’ll be out diving again. To occupy myself, I’ve been making Tshirt yarn and painting chalk labels on anything that needed it.

Today, due to the weather, we had a power cut from 10am – 5pm …it’s not too much of a problem but we certainly do take everything for granted.

No power, no water, so no shower, at least had water to brush our teeth 😀
