Scuba Video! Annnnd..... !!!

We're home now!! (Have been for about 2 days) and we're working on getting our pictures all organized and posted to share our trip with you.  

For now... here is a video that the company took of us on our last dive during our PADI open water course on Koh Tao.  It's about 15 minutes long and is pretty fun.  

We took about 30 minutes of video and about 1400 photos on the trip - so expect some media coming up in the next few days/weeks.  

here's one important preview.. 

We got engaged!!!

More details on that soon too...

Enjoy the video

Trip Post #2 Koh Tao

Hi all...
We're on Koh Tao now.. have been for a few days.. and we're enjoying it a lot. Started our PADI Open water course yesterday and it's going really well, but is pretty scary sometimes. There's so much more to it than I thought there would be, but its pretty great. Today we had our first dive in the actual ocean - only went to about 6 meters so not too deep, but still pretty scary. The visibility was really poor because of the high tide season and many boats in the bay where we were. Hopefully tomorrow as we get further away from the island and a little deeper (12 meters) it will clear up and we'll see more interesting fish and coral. We'll see...

More soon, and I'll try again to upload some photos maybe tomorrow of the next day. The card readers built into these computers won't read my camera card so I need to remember to grab my camera cable when I come next time.

Hope all is well on the other side of the world... we're living it up over here and are doing really well. :)
