The spicy Austrian put up a good fight.

Every day the Diving plan and maps were sketched.

A horrible thing I did with Emma's finger wound.

Time to get in the Dinghy!

So we all got in and let the line out...
|
...i managed to save my camera when everyone fell in...

Another Sunrise - last day!

My divemaster, Ben, briefs us about fish we might see.

Pink Shirt, pursed lips, fleshy man hands - the whole package.

When Ben was underwater his dreds looked like an octopus.

Aother Island in the Simlans...
|
We walked through the island interior...
|
...to another secret beach location...
|
...we had to run the mosquito gauntlet...
|
...but emerged on the other side to this!

Pristine! But we lost Maz on the way back.
|
And got back on the boat. "Wait is that him? Up there?"
|
And indeed it was - silly fool.
|
Arthur was one funny little guy...
|
...with a beautifully thick Austrian accent.
|
Back to reality, so I brushed my teeth.
|
Ryan had a tough time leaving the boat.

Hopefully they mean the boat...
