Dayang Fun : 21st-24th Sept 2007

Sawasdee Kup!

I'm absolutely having lots of fun the past weekend and will be having more till the end of this week. I'm Blogging from the lobby of my Bangkok City Suite as my mates are still sleeping at this time of the day (12 noon Bangkok time). We had a little too much to eat and drink till very late last night. I'm totally relaxed after yesterday's full body massage that lasted a little more than 2 hours! We already visited the famous Suan- Lum Night Bazzar and watch some erotic and amazingly fascinating Thai Girls show with couple specials. Before I get too carried away.....

I was coaxed into the dive trip by Xiangyi as she was badly itching to dive Malaysia's waters before the Monsoon hits. The plan was to dive Tioman with The NTU but that Blur girl as sotong as she always have been, got the whole thing wrong and i eventually realised after confirmation. So we head to Dayang instead. The boat ride to the island was as usual - horrible and long. Dayang looked much more deteriorated since the last time i was there. The beach front at the little bay of the dayang resort was corroded by long shore drift right to the resort's concrete foundations. The corals were pretty much destroyed... The fish life is not as abundant.... and divers' attitude towards Marine conservation have changed. There will soon be nothing left to see in Dayang, at the rate divers and fishermen are taking from the sea.

Disappointment in locating marine life aside, I met lots of old familiar faces. Did a bit of catch up here and there. The most fruitful part was to meet new people, exchange experiences and have lots of fun. Although my dive guide Wen lie was a bit "nuah" but he and others like Ben, Jason, Ken, James, Issac, Shin, Youwen and all were abunch of fun loving and friendly guys - Like all divers do!.... we did lots of funny and crazy stuffs together and was definitely memorable.

Till I'm back from Bangkok, I'll blog more about the divesites, marine life and the fun we had in greater depth. So guys wait on for the photos and more report!

Ciao! Kup!
