March 2005 Friends Trip - photos

The March 2005 Friends Live-aboard trip lived up to the usual trips that we run - being absolutely superb. This trip we had a few of the guys form the last trip (hence the name of the trips - "friends trips"), but also a great deal of the newer interns also. The attendees were - Dave (HMS - veteran of 3 trips), Lucy (2nd trip), Russ (don't let the picture put you off), Alexia, Lee Smitten & Jimbo (Swindon Boyz), JJ, Alex (Sharkfin), Alexandra & Richard, Desiree, Aaran (monkey boy), Rosie, Mario, Dogga, Andy, Steve R, Stuart (Pointer), Danny and of course me - Pj. Please see below for random photos of the entire trip.

Alex - in exactly the same place as the last trip. Ladies, you know where to find him if you wish. Batfish at Koh Bon in the Surin Islands just north of the Similans. Aaran never stops monkeying around. Our special friend!
Donald Duck Bay Divers in Similan water Stuart no air
What a view - I am staying here! These divers in the water do not seem in a hurry to get out. Stuart, is that no air left? Mmmm...I guess that you just wanted to stay down there.
Jimbo - Alex Similans Coral mirror The gang Donald Duck Bay
Jimbo and Alex enjoying a good few dives together. A lovely mirror effect made in the corals by passing divers' bubbles. The Mermaids Crew - Donald Duck Bay, Similans - March 2005.

Stuart night snorkeling Manta Shrimp Lazy Sunbathers
Stuart doing a little snorkeling at 3am! A Mantis Shrimp. All of this diving is really hard work!
JJ bpai nai - go where? Khun Aae - divemaster Russell and Alexia
JJ - where are you going? I don't know...I turn my back for 1 second and you disappear! Khun Aae - our trusted dive master on the Really Wicked Witch. Sorry Russell - This just had to be shown more than the once!
Aaran monkeying around the group - similan islands night out in Patong, Phuket, Thailand
Aaran - what did I tell you - he's always monkeying around. The final photo before docking - what a superb trip! A night on the town in Patong, Phuket, Thailand. A superb way to end this fabulous trip.
