Well what can I say a very very early start this morning to drive the hour and a half to Coral Bay and we were too early to even check in. So had breakfast, decided to go on a boat trip, booked it and those people who were in our room had gotten out so we could go in by then. Dumped our gear and went and collected some snorkeling gear and off we went on the 'very' long walk down to the beach it took at least 4-5 minutes and sat in the sun waiting for our boat to arrive.
Boat final turned up and off we went on our glass bottomed boat. The tide was low and it was really good to see the coral. All hard coral with brown and greys everywhere... We went snorkeling twice and well I got rather cold but got to see so many fish. Don't ask me what they are cause I can't remember any of there names... but they were cool!!!
It was Sandra's birthday today and she had a few fun things planned. After our boast trip, a quick lunch we were back on the beach for what turned out to be not so great snorkeling as the tide was high so we started drinking the 2 litres of red wine we had brought with us and managed to finish just as the sun was setting. Sandra's wish was to have her photo taken with 30 men that day and well between us we managed to harass 15 men on the beach, resulting in some interesting photos. After sunset a shower and a trip to the pool table at the bar we were ready for some more action.... We rounded up another 15 guys at the hostel for 1 great photo to finish the night... or start it depend on what way you look at it. Off to the pub at the end of the street to dance to the band who were playing, but who finished at 8pm, and the pub closed at 10pm... but we did get some more great photos, including one with a Whale penis...
Back at the hostel we did the 10 second dash with our camera on timer as we tried to pose in some interesting places around the hostel... Coral Bay is a cool place. Following Day I woke up feeling shite. Trip to the medical centre to be told I had the flu and a raging temperature so I stayed in bed for most of the day. Got up in time for sunset and went straight back to bed again. Getting up for the bus the following morning was a killer.
