ALERT; Sadly I left my trusty underwater camera behind so thankyou to my pal Andreas who risked his phone in one of those dodgy waterproof pockets! The quality is pants but I will cheat and put in a vid of a turtle I swam with in Bunaken Indonesia. I still can’t find that damn camera……

After that my “list” becomes more difficult to read so do please add to it when you get there or anyone else who has been there. I would love to hear fishy anecdotes or add to the list . I had after all drunk a lot of coconut rum after the trip!
Health and Safety: don’t drink before any water activity!
