19 May 2019

We hope that everyone is really well.  We are good, been busy and been missing everyone!!!

It's been incredibly hot here and we are experiencing some bleaching which is due to the elevated sea temperature.   FYI, bleaching is when the corals expel the (zooxanthellae) algae living in their tissues.  The algae is what gives the coral it's color so when it's bleached, it gets very pale and then turns completely white.  

Simon has been out documenting  the bleaching at different dive sites to help out with some global research.

I've been running up-cycling workshops and taking DMC's out, nothing out of the ordinary to be honest.  I've had lots of internship inquiries which is brilliant and have been in touch with a lot of schools that want to send large groups over, early next year.   Not keen on the kids bit, but it's all money LOL

I really enjoy up-cycling and it's great to reuse things ....we need to recycle, up-cycle and use our imagination and move away from this disposable world we live in ...well I don't LOL

We have just returned from a Visa run to Kuala Lumpur.  It was a nice break away from the island but a long journey as we decided to get multiple trains which were very comfy but the transfer times were a little too long.  5 or so hours sat in a Thai bar with not much to do apart from cards, facebook, conversation, eye spy got a little tedious at times and the fact that the bar/restaurant closed and we spend a couple of the hours sat on the most comfy of wooden benches :-D

Only another couple of hours wait!
Nearly 26 hours of travelling we finally arrived at our destination which was a lovely Air bnb apartment in central KL.  We were on the 10th floor and we made full use of their 100m pool ..even Cuthbert.  It was his first time on Uni, his new unicorn inflatable LOL

Cuthbert living it up!
I really do like KL but it's challenging trying to find food for Simone ...the first night after traipsing around for a few hours we ended up shopping for a few essentials (tea, milk, bread, wine & beer) and ended up ordering a pizza ..which was a little disappointing ..but it was food so as we hadn't eaten for nearly the whole day, we devoured the lot :-D

KL is where we spent part of our honeymoon and where we found an amazing little veggie restaurant which is still there funnily enough.  How its survived for this long i just don't know, as it's pretty run down and everything around it has been built up and looks rather smart.   Super memories :-D

..have you leave it there I'm afraid ..as it's getting dark and have to cycle home  ..catch you soon xxx
