July 3, 2011

Today we were up and at it early since we had a boat to catch to enjoy the morning snorkeling at an island in the China Sea. Those that enjoyed the late night Turtle adventure were a little groggy but quickly prepared themselves for another day of adventure....

So that speck in the sea, that is where we are headed. I will tell you that if my grandpa had seen the boat they used to get us to the island he would not have been happy with either Mike or I for allowing our families to join this adventure. However, their are times you have to do what you have to do, so that is what we did....

This is a close up of where we went and snorkeled.

So once we arrived everyone was outfitted with gear and sent on their way.....

Some fished after snorkeling....

Some decided to jump from a cliff......

Some just enjoyed the view from the Island...

All this to say that everyone had a great morning on this island, doing whatever they wanted to do!

Once our snorkeling adventure came to and end and we returned to Ruby's it was time to pack up and head to the Elephant Rescue and then on to see Sun Bears. This is where the story comes to a sad ending. Due to all the fun we had snorkeling we arrived so late to the Elephant Rescue that it was closed, no Elephants and no Sun Bears. So we headed home.

Along the way back to Kuala Lumpur I took pictures trying to capture the landscape.....
