bye bye project!!

Alas time has come for me to move on from the project in Thailand. next stop Malaysia!! (via a few places first)



As Project Abroad tradition states, the last dive of a volunteer has to be exercised in ridiculous outfits for all, chosen by the leaving volunteer. Speedos and silly animal hats were my preference. Everyone entered this full heatedly, but unfortunately Chris was able to loose his underwear to a savage scissor attack by myself, huge and uncontrollable laughter ensued leave most with very little air for the rest of the dive. Upon return to the surface harsh glances were exchanged between us but friendship resumed, in the end.



Yesterday we also had a birthday girl in our group. Entering a restaurant with 19 people in Thailand is greeted with a greater deal of foreboding on the faces of the waiting staff as in other countries. Maybe due to the fact we were intoxicated western teens/20 somethings. After rearranging the entire restaurant to fit us in, service of food was also staggered to the point people were ordering ordering dessert before a number of us had even got mains. This is a one of a number of things i miss about England.
