Andaman Sea - Thailand
 

Just a few pictures from a recent trip to Thailand. We spent five days on a liveaboard boat diving. It was sad to see the damage on the reef from the 2004 tsunami and then a massive coral bleaching event last year. Many of the dive sites have been closed and many others were literal coral graveyards. However, the diving was still fantastic.

Wow!! This is on my bucket list for sure. It must be difficult leaving that to return to "real life" afterwards....
