so then
think i left off just before we headed to donsol to see the whale sharks - iwe got a lovely campsite write by the ocean, and booked in for our ocean trip the next day
your not guaranteed to see them, but this is peak season so we where quite optimistic - but even better than that we had been in the boat for only 30 minutes when we wheere ordered to jump in with masks and flippers etc, and sure enough there he was - and they are bloody massive!!! about 8-9 meters long (can grow to 20 meters i think) and gliding along write by us
so we actually saw about 10 of them during the day and actually managed to swim along side them for a minute or so - amazing stuff,
also almost landed on one when we jumped in
gonna try sitck a piccie up now, hold on
