Curso de buceo PADI

... peces de colores, muchos de los cuales salen en la pelicula de Buscando a Nemo: habia Nemos, Doris, peces angel, peces globo, estrellas de mar, corales "escuela" con pececillos diminutos... hasta un par de tortugas marinas!!! Eso si, por aqui no hay tiburones, asi que estamos a salvo. Me gustaria quizas bajarme un programa (si existe) para ir marcando las especies que voy viendo y donde. Si no existe, alguien deberia inventarlo. <br><br>El agua aqui esta clarisima ...

El Caribe filipino

... del mar es indescriptible, hasta el punto que nuestro instructor comento que el Pasaje de la Isla Verde (muy cerquita de aqui) tiene un fondo digno del National Geographic. <br><br>Varias tardes hemos cenado en los restaurantes locales, a la orilla del mar. Esto tiene sus ventajas y sus inconvenientes. Por una parte, puedes disfrutar de la brisa y el sonido del romper de las olas y observar como los crios pescan pececillos desde la orilla con un simple sedal y una botella ...

Update on the Misadventures of Russ, Rescue Diver

... the bottom, giving them rescue breaths and trying to tow them to shore without drowning them and myself. <br><br>Only one thing worth mentioning stood out during the week.... <br><br> I made the mistake of filling out my medical history truthfully stating that I have High Blood Pressure controlled by medication, so of course they required a Doctor's signature to proof that I was fit for diving. Been ...

Sabang Weekend

... harmless.<br> Our third dive on Saturday was to Kilima Steps, another excellent spot. In fact, every dive we did in Sabang was excellent and full of a rich diversity of marine life except for our night dive. We decided to do a night dive on Saturday which was our 4th dive of the day (apparantly one dive too many). We tried to do the dive at Monkey Beach but the current was so strong we were just swept away in an out-of-control ...

Shark Attack?

... quietly. It didn't pay us much attention even with our lights shining on it. We knew it was a momma shark because around the other side of the overhang there was an active juvenile shark swimming in circles and figure eights. He was fun to watch. Once in a while he would swim toward which left us all wondering how many teeth he already had and how big a chunk a little guy like him could take out of you. Luckily we never found out ...

Eat, sleep, dive, repeat

... well, as two days later Typhoon Feng Wu hit and although we had lengthy power cuts and the rain just didn't stop for days, we were relatively unscathed by the whole experience. Others were not so fortunate, and we watched in horror (when we had power) the BBC and local coverage of the ferry disaster where over 800 people lost their lives. There was also coverage of some of the worst hit ...

It was a long wait

... em, could hold a tune together, the drummer was always out of time, and having ago at everyone else for being out of time! Funny. A group of Religious Koreans arrived at one stage, 18 or so and they came to dinner, where a kind of Buffet was laid on so we sat on the veranda and watched, and after dinner they broke out into song, and version of Pack up you troubles, it was hilarious, they had a dance routine and everything, kind of like a Jesus Army but with worse ...

An Adventure with my Brothers

... too long. It's only 4pm and we have to wait almost 7 hours before we leave. A guy there asked us if we want to rent a room to check-in before our departure so I checked it out to see if maybe we could rest and get some sleep. It's not that expensive and looks decent enough for me so I asked my brothers if they want to catch some sleep while waiting. They said that there's no need to rent a room for they are already comfortable resting on ...

Coco Beach

We arrived at Coco Beach (Oriental Mindoro) mid- morning and were initially very happy to see the beautiful thatched bamboo cottages set up the hillside. However despite billing themselves as a relaxed beach resort Coco Beach actually should be described as the Filipino equivalent of Club Med with many different activities occurring all day, if you needed something to do. But it was continous noise, very family orientated and lots of concrete. The ...
