Koh Tao is really small and the coast consists of many small bays

There was no sharks:-(
I did see a big grooper fish, though. Pretty cool!

Next stop was riddled with beautifull corals. In all kinds of colors.
Again, there was a multitude of fish.
I wish I could have brought my speargun.. It would have been sheer carnage

I tried to get Sara to touch some sea anemone, but she refused. I tried to tell that it would feel funny. But still she refused!
Please note, what while snorkeling she refused to touch them. More on that later!

We did a bunch of stops, and ended up on an island there supposedly there was a whale shark on the other side of it. Didn't see it though.

All in all not the most exciting snorkeling trip.
And this time Sara also got sunburnt, eventhough she never gets burnt. Well the Thai sun got to her.

That evening we had dinner by the beach, with a thunderstorm brewing in the distant horizon.

That was really some sight. All of a sudden the wind picked up, and the heavens just opened up.

It just poured down for an hour, and then stopped. Right around the time we had finished dinner. Alright timing...

Day 17
By now we had pretty much seen all of Koh Tao, and we still had 3 and a half days left on Koh Tao
