Day 6 More Diving

I woke early and contemplated whether to sit on the verandah and edit yesterday’s dive photos or hide behind the mosquito net in bed. I opted for bed as it is not only insect free but much cooler with a fan directly overhead.

The dive boat is really decrepit and part of the hand rail fell off today!

Before and after!

There were some interesting finds on the dive: a large moray eel, brightly coloured nudibranchs and a scorpion fish; the master of disguise.

This has been a brilliant afternoon’s diving. Challenging for sure but also hugely rewarding. Sadly I think this will be my last dive of the holiday. I only have 2 days left on Mafia and cannot dive for 24 hours before flying. Therefore tomorrow would be my last opportunity to dive. My ears were really a problem today so I think I should give them a rest or I will regret it on the numerous forthcoming flights.

    Quite a challenge, I think you are right to rest your ears before your flights. You have good photos and many more memories of your dives. Enjoy the evenings thank you for the blog.

    Take care and enjoy

    • Went snorkelling today and that was almost as good as the dives. Saw masses including a huge Napoleon wrasse. Might do that tomorrow if the whale sharks look like being elusive. Cloudy with some heavy showers today so probably not great for seeing sharks tomorrow. I’ll just have to come back again!!

    Loving the blog. Sounds far more enjoyable than my day Had a cooking day which went wrong. Would rather snorkel where you are but without those peskie mossies. Xx

    • Think you might have found the snorkelling a bit extreme! Mossies are a pain though have n’t been bitten today yet but I think they normally get me in the bathroom at night! Xx
