Dive Day #13
Looks like another lovely day.
Every morning here, I have had an omelette, today I thought I would change it up a bit, what with it being bacon day.
Here you get two types of fried eggs, snotty whites, that Richard likes, or rubber eggs, that I would take every time over snotty whites. Just the thought…. Yuk!
Dive #43
Aguhuta
Love this dive. Corals on a slope.
No current.
The water was filled with red toothed triggerfish. Amazing.
All of my pictures on this dive were taken using super macro. That is a first.
We saw thousands and thousands of trigger fish, many teeny tiny nudis, and big pink and yellow nudis.
The surface interval was taken at Bethlehem.
Dive #44
Bethlehem
No current.
Slope with coral then sand and a rubble plateau at 20 meters.
We saw various nudis including the teeny tiny psychedelic slug.
Back at the resort, it was dinner time. BLT and fries for me and raw fish with ginger and chilli for Richard.
Dive #45
Apol’s Point
Enjoy this dive. A bit of current but we kept out of it.
We saw pink pygmy seahorse and a very special nudis which we need to look up to find a name.
A lot of current at the surface at the end of the dive.
We crossed to Mainit Corner for our surface interval.
Dive #46
Mainit Corner
Brrrr… Most of the dive was at 27 degrees, only reaching 29 degrees under the boat at the end.
It was a beautiful dive. We got around the corner for the first time this holiday. Such an amazing site.
We saw lots of critters, large and small. Some very bright scorpion fish. Some tiny juvenile nudis.
Back to the resort for a wash and brush up followed by drinks at the bar. It is Tiara’s birthday so snacks were provided. Chicken wings and meat on skewers with a very delicious, spicy sauce.
Darryl came to the bar on his own. Dianne looks to have a skin bend and was in the office getting checked over.
Following the administration of 100% oxygen, the bend is responding well. So good news!!
She will continue to be monitored and definitely won’t be diving tomorrow, after that, we wait to see…
To say we are surprised by this, is an understatement. Darryl and Dianne dive twice a day and are always well within limits and dive in a very relaxed way with gentle desents and assents.
It shows that you just can’t be sure and any changes to your body that are worrying you should be checked out.
Between the sessions of oxygen, we all had dinner together,
Richard and I had (his choice), Shanghai rolls, noodles with chicken and vegetables and chop suey. Good choice!
Camera stuff, followed by photo stuff before bed.
