Sunday 21st

Today was our last morning at the octopus resort, we knew they had wifi but you only get 30 mins worth. So we used the laptop to do the blog updates and try and do some pictures for you all however being satellite Internet it just went bleh I'm not doing it. So we left that and tried to FaceTime as many people as we could. We were up at 6AM because of the time difference! Speaking to Laura's mum & dad it cut off half way through and said we have exceeded our bandwidth! This was after only 17 mins! After this we headed up for breakfast and today there were sausages! Needless to say Myles took advantage if this, he had omelette on toast with 7 sausages. He was happy. Being so early we headed for the beach (only a 15 second walk) and claimed our sun lounger. The morning was beautiful and the sea was like glass so we grabbed our snorkels and hit the reef. It was totally different to the day before, the sun was beaming through the water and reflecting of the incredible colours of the fish, it was amazing! After 2 hours we were nackered so went to the sun loungers to dry off. After only a few minutes we were dry and went to pack our bags and check out. We got back to the dorm and the resort had heard that the other resort had bed bugs so the beds were gone! They were all being cleaned! All checked out we had lunch, today was a good but a little dry chicken teriyaki pizza, played 2 games of pool (Myles won both) and  went to the taxi boat. Out of our little resort area in open water the sea was quite choppy so we had to change from our little boat to a superboat to take us to the catamaran which would take us to the next resort. Myles enjoyed the superboat greatly thanks to having 2 V8 engines on it and 800 horsepower! It was rather good fun... We eventually climbed aboard the catamaran and headed to our new resort. Its called wayalailai Eco haven (I think that's how you spell it) pronounced wa-la-lei-lei, far too many l's. we sat down for afternoon tea and met our new room mates! We were taken to separate dorms where we met a lovely girl called Emma, she's from London and knows Brighton well so we got on rather well! It's just us 3 in the dorm which is lovely and we have our own en-suite shower and toilet!!! We chatted for a couple of hours about Australia as that's where she had just come from which is helpful and the dinner drums went. We shot across to see what food was there, tonight was a buffet of potato mayonnaise, beef broth, BBQ chicken, coleslaw, what looked like fried mushroom and obviously pineapple and melon. The mushroom was not mushroom and we still do not know what it was. Anyway we chatted to Emma for a few hours and went back to our dorm. We got there and realised that a light was on, electricity isn't on all day so we didn't know any different. This was a bad thing as it had attracted a few critters. 15 mins were spent eradicating these before settling down for the night.
