Oooh, we know you're jealous. look at the colour of the sea, truly a tropical paradise, here we snorkled with Black tip reef sharks, they circled us from below but decided not to eat us, phew!!!

Never mind the weather!!!!!

Diving off Ko Phi Phi, Thailand

Heres our boy diving off the top of the boat, see how beautiful the water is, and the entry of his dive!

The terrible two preparing for their 'Giant stride' entry into the blue.

Here we are being 'buddies' checking our BCD, weights, releases and air of course. Cool, ain't we!!

Here comes Chloe after some hours of building up courage finally she dived off the top of the boat. Our kids are great.xxxx

This is the lagoon where we did our dive off of Ko Phi Phi Island it is the place that the film 'The Beach" was produced. Whilst snorkelling, which was beautiful the photos don't do it justice, we saw our first shark, a Leopard Shark. I was surprised cos when Vin shouted Shark! I swam towards him to see, I always thought I would swim away. Chloe climbed on to Vinnies head to get out of the water and Connor swam down to inspect.

Ao Nang, nr Krabi, Thailand

Well, here they are the pair of them horsing around as usual. Ao Nang beautiful sea but when you turn inland a bit like canvey seafront, hmm glad we didnt stay here.
