Divers just wanna have fun

This diving team has been diving different countries, islands and challenging depths. The talk is usually about the latest sighting of another species of marine life, how to develop another diving skill or method or what gear/gadget to save for next. In the world of scuba diving this is called “fun diving.”

This time the “fun” would be done no deeper than 1 meter along the shores of Koh Sichang – an island nearest to Bangkok. The photos will tell the rest of the story.

Koh Sichang pier

south koh sichang island

Pink bikes made it more fun

part of the way to south island was unpaved.

beach-combing

a nice spot by the cliffs where there
was a field of tide-pools

the tide was out and we had fun checking
the stuff that is submerged during high tide

crustaceans that encrust the rocks showing
the soft and hard phase of their life cycle

it wouldn't have been fun without these
protective footwear

some more barnacle-like crustaceans

chasing the tambasakan - mud skippers

gotcha!

King of the tide pools

a dead coral that knew better days.

i'm still trying to figure out what kind
of creature would be pooping this much.

D2 should get herself a pair of these shades.
looks good on her. char... reese.

a heady pic. D3 is strutting in the distance

spicing up our lives

a plateful of mouthwatering cholesterol-laced uric acid

green but ripe mangoes

battle of the beverages

clipped wings

awesome tide pool mirror

getting wacky

if this pier can only talk...

...it would tell of days of royalty 
and pre-nup pictorials

c'mon D1, you can't fool no one

apprehension written over our faces
while the vendor who obviously wasn't 
cam-savvy gives in to our wishes.
