Phi Phi - Day 3

Today, we dove the wreck, which required additional training because it was greater than 60 feet deep.  Sorry, but I have no photos from the wreck dive.  Following the wreck dive, we set course for Ko Ha for two dives, including my favorite dive site of anywhere on the planet.

We are approaching Ko Ha, which is Thai for Five Islands.  The ocean was dead flat again today... unbelievable conditions for us!

After two fantastic dives, we are heading back to Phi Phi.  It's a two hour ride and the sea is still flat.  Wow... another great day!
