Bye bye Paradise...

These were from our last day in El Nido...we went out for an awesome dive with a Romanian guy, Nepalese girl, Greek dude and our Brit dive master. Honestly, I've never seen bluer/greener water in my life and the underwater visibility was incredible. The coral and fish here were incredible (albeit for the "Crown of Thorns" that have recently swept in...). I saw fish and coral I've never even dreamed possible - things that even the most imaginative DreamWorks animator couldn't come up with. Was so proud of Helen...she got to dive without a license (or training for that matter...I would guess this is not legal in other parts of the world) and I got down to 22 meters and did three dives (45 minutes, 52 minutes and 62 minutes, respectively). I sure miss this place one month later...If anyone ever wants to go, know I'll gladly be your guide :)

AND

I've been totally slackin on this blog since I got my new camera. It's so easy to carry around! And I'm not afraid of dropping it/breaking it/getting it stolen when I'm out. Soon though...

  1. Looks unreal. You are really getting to see the world one spot at a time.

    I'm assuming you don't have to be PADI certified to dive in these waters. And quit slackin', more pics please!

    Keep it up,
