we slowly migrated to the starboard on the later part of the return journey
enjoying the moment...
boat atf's playing tai-tee to the maxes! got cards can play, anywhere! haven't tried underwater thou...
but to play tai-tee on the dive platform!
what else to keep us occupied on a 4hr boat trip..
1 hr into the journey & we can still see the islands
& on our way back to Mersing!
farewell Sebukang, farewell Aur!
our dive boat is our return ferry too
& its now where we actually get to see sotong in the water!
on our 4hr return boat trip! glup!

2nd-ers!
NAUI Scuba Diving group 17Mar - 19Mar 06!
interior shot of our chalet huts (finally we can turn on the aircon!)
& our 7am boat dive started thereafter (view the underwater album this dive photos!)
diveboat ready
better view of the "beached" buoys at low tide
we can easily see the rock formations & buoy lines from the jetty
the sky's ideally clear, waters not to choppy
tide's still low
the railings are a popular place for drying of BCs
KG Sebukang at 6.45am
asleep @ 10pm with an early dive tomorrow morning, it very comforting cool to sleep here at night despite the aircon's generator
& abduction!
backstratch!
Ridzwan's spotted prey
nevertheless a nice group pic opportunity
yea baby!
still no night diving.. again! ahah!
which very much left the girls excited & started "crab saving" with lifeline!
nevertheless we spotted a craby critter on the jetty pillars
the camera is not good catching things underwater thou...esp at night
till Uncle George came with his Uber pistol grip diving light!
we spotted a few fishes here & there, but no glowing sotong
armed no other than diving lights to attract the "ceatures of the night"
sotong watching!
The late night was spent at the jetty..
my camera ain't very good at night, neither being able to catch the spectacular night star formations.
not to mention enough Scuba Mags reading for at least a year!
catchin' up on the past diving groups photos (who left their mark here)
no night dive yet...
A feast till dark
Theres more than enough for everyone!(as Uncle George claims!)
mind the pic, my hands were hungrily trembling! (shown as sotong, wings, hotdogs, bbq fish, satay, beehoon, cumber/onions)
as you can expect it, its a whole assortment of BBQ seafood!
the dinner BBQ! whee!
but what else to call it a day without...
