Not quite so sunny today, in fact at some points this morning we have seen rain in the distance. Thankfully it has avoided us, we certainly would not want to get wet!
Our first dive was on Darry Laut, the sunken casino wreck where nudi’s, Christmas Tree worms and feather duster works entertained us.
It’s not got any colder here though several of us are feeling cooler underwater here. More layers required.
Our second dive was at xxx Street an aborted attempt to dive Bethlehem. Lots more nudi’s to see there.
Back on board we head off to lunch which today is BLT with fries for Jo whilst I went for the onion soup. I must have known something about the soup as I elected to go for an additional plate of fries, this helped a great deal!
After lunch we had out to Sun View which produced another crop of Nudi and Shrimp shots, it’s a nice slope of coarse sand with very many small coral outcrops. Picachu and Large Orange Pyjama nudis were a couple of highlights.
For the second dive of the afternoon we move a short distance to Vivirey where we take ‘between dive’ snacks. But, by the time we are about to go in the current fish had arrived so instead we head across to Mainit West which turns out to be a very productive dive!
At one point I’m trying to let Jo know that the mother of all turtles is heading our way, in fact, the turtle ended up giving her a shove though all the time Jo was concentrating on a macro shot and was unaware of the passing monster!
Back to base for Prinks which today consisted mostly of Pina Colada, Mango Daiquiri and Amaretto Sours. This was hotly pursued by a dinner which tonight featured Filipino dishes of Ground Pork and Potato, Pancit Canton with chicken (noodles), deep fried Lumpia and vegetables in coconut which mischievously hid a very large and long green chilli!
