Curso de buceo PADI

... los dedos! Normalmente en la escuela ya te dicen la profundidad de la inmersion y si te vas a encontrar corrientes, asi que intentare ser precavida. En las lecciones me ensenyaron a bucear sin las gafas y a encontrar el regulador (y mas cosas) en la piscina, asi que no me puse nerviosa cuando llego la hora de hacerlo en el mar. <br><br>El curso me costo barato o, mas bien, mas barato que en Europa: 240$ o 12.000 pesos. <br><br>En las inmersiones que he hecho (4), he visto ...

Hay una gran cantidad de tiendas y escuelas de buceo, la actividad principal en esta zona. Las inmersiones son todas en areas a menos de diez minutos en barca.

Update on the Misadventures of Russ, Rescue Diver

... ass all day by the pool while I'm working!"<br><br>Well, you'll be happy to know that I did make it down there this past week and passed the courses. The Rescue Diver course was one of the toughest I've taken for diving but it was worth it, and feel like it will make me a better diver. but enough of that; spent most of the four days either in the pool or open water, pulling divers (the instructors) up ...

Sabang Weekend

... his wet suit. At this point we had 2 dives and 3 injuries. Nothing major but still... We've been diving for years and never had any encounters with the marine life like this. Even the sharks have left us alone. Apparantly its not the sharks we need to stay away from. The next dive was to the Giant Clams. Would a clam clamp down on one of our legs as we tried to swim away? Thankfully not this time. The huge clams were impressive ...

... of the night with a Bee Gees medly playing in her head. Words and I Started a Joke were playing over and over and over and wouldn't stop. If the guitar guy on the beach is out there again in the morning we may have to give him a tip and ask him to go away.

Eat, sleep, dive, repeat

... unfold in the bar opposite with complete fascination, until I realized that we may have looked like we were cruising for something to spice up our relationship. We toyed with the idea of moving on to Boracay or Palawan but it seemed rather a difficult and protracted proposition, and all a bit hit and miss time-wise, so we just decided we would stay put in Sabang for the duration. Just ...

It was a long wait

... the supermarket was, so occasionally would walk up there to get ham and cheese and a French stick to sit and scoff on the veranda, as the rain came down. Sherwins brother in law works at the post office so he had been texting him too, to see if any post had turned up, and then one day the postman arrived and alas, nothing for me, but he did tell me post form UK takes 3 weeks! We went to Coco Aroma again during this time and watched a band called the Tastebuds, that ...

An Adventure with my Brothers

... They said that the next one will not be leaving until 9pm, followed by the ones leaving 10 and 11pm. They asked me if I'm going to Boracay. They suggested to go for the last trip because the first one will arrive in Caticlan Port around 3am and we will be stranded there because the pump boat service to Boracay doesn't start until 6am. If we take the last ship then we will arrive there just in time for the first pump boat without ...

W@W PHILIPPINES!

... like I always used to do. And Jeff sounded like he got the surprize of his life realizing how much I loved water activities! Aren't we just perfect for each other? Even Mama was delighted watching the various tropical fish and sea grass through clear waters so close to the shore. It was all a big adventure.
