Phuket from Underwater

Great dinner last night at Mom Tri's. It was recommended by the LonelyPalnet guidebook and our friend Thien. I had the seared Tuna and 2 terrific glasses of Chardonnay, Stef had the sea bass, and we split the fried banana with toffee ice cream (which may have been the higgling of the trip). We sat on a patio about 50 ft above the water and watched the waves crash on the rocks below. Absolutely stunning!

First dive lesson today, it went pretty well. We watched some video last night and this morning, read some book, and jumped in the pool! We went most of the day in the pool actually. We practiced taking our masks off, clearing them, using secondary air sources, and even taking off our scuba tanks under water and putting them back on. It rained for a lot of the morning, which was somewhat refreshing (and looked really cool from underneath the water). Unfortunately, since we were in the water all day, no iphone pics to post. Got a few cool underwater shots with point and shoot though.

Tomorrow we're getting picked up at 7:45 to go out to sea for an open water dive. Pretty exciting!

Resting back at the room before heading out to dinner.
