Olaho people,
Well what have i been upto since i last wrote home?? We managed to get a bus from Durban to a place near the sea called Umkamaas, there wasnt much to do here bar diving and watching DVD, but it gave me the oppurtunity to finish my PADI course which i left half finished in Thailand. So after chatting to the people who run the place, whilst Kate was off busy wrestling with Tiger sharks, the owner tells me about his new house with a load of lights not working in the garden. So being me, i tell him i,ll do them for him, blatently knowing i,m then in turn going to get my diving for free, woopee. They also invite us and a few other girls from the hostel over to there house for a BBQ to show off the lights i fixed!!?? Anyways house was amazing with amazing views of the sea from the decking in garden which also included a huge swimming pool. Inside a bar fully stocked or should i say was fully stocked. I think we drunk all the beer and most of the wine, so all in all a quality night. Sadly reality kicked in the next morning when we had to be up at 7 to go diving. A bumpy boat ride is not a hangover cure, however diving was amazing and cured my hangover. We saw loads of amazing fish and the current wasnt that strong but just enough to nudge you along the top and in between reefs without any effort. We also managed to see a hammerhead shark on the way back to shore, which was a bonus. On our last night a few of us went to a bar and after a few drinks 5 of us decided we all wanted to go to Mozambique and 2 of the girls had a hire car, so we all decided "ROADTRIP".
Anyways people take it easy hope alls well back in blighty, peace out A town......
