what a glorious 3 days

well, i think we've just had the loveliest 3 days of our trip there -

we booked a snorkel trip to sipodan and planned to camp on the nearby island of Mabul (pictured) for one night -

so the first day we rocked over to the island of sipodan and went snorkelling with the lovely turtles - sorry, gonna haver to repeat that - Swimming with turtles!!!! and massive ones too - they where everywhere around us, it was totally amazing, the coral was gorgeous and we surrounded by thousands of lovely bright coloured fishys - just amazing

and the island of mabul, was so pretty - we managed to cxamp for free and we could use the nearby facilities of uncle changs place - eg shower, toilet, and hang out on the pier

there was about 10 people staying there, and they where all lovely which makes such a difference and both evening where spent just sitting on the pier over the water, drinking the phillipino rum and talking the type of rubbish that you usually do after half a bottle of spirits

just perfect, and we where all so sad to leave - it was short but we felt like we had been there for ages - and i would absolutely love to go back there - if anyones in this area then this trip just cant be missed - 100% delightful
