A Voyage in the East

Today was a superb day. I took part in two open water dives!!! Diving is brilliant fun. I saw all kinds of amazing wild life and did all the required open water skills. I also dramatically improved my buoyancy. Now when I am in the water it feels like I am weightless. It feels really cool. Tomorrow morning I have to rise early as I am in the ocean at 7:30 AM. After I have completed those two dives I will have my open water certificate. I think that I will go for a couple of dives in Malaysia. Currently I am planning to leave Ko Tao on Friday and head south, hopefully as far as Malaysia. I am going to spend a couple of weeks there, hopefully meeting up with my roommate from Korea, Alana, in a couple of weeks in K.L. I still have the Malaysia tourist theme song in my head from all the commercials that they had on CNN International when I lived in South Korea: "Malaysia truly Asia, as magic as you can be!" DRAMATIC!
