Update after 3 days aborad liveaboard


Where to start!
Well. w had dinner the day we got on the liveaboard.. H really wanted hotpot, so we had that at an M+K:









Then we got on the boat.. it is an awesome boat.. great staff.. great food.. great everything.. the owner (or part owner) Duke is awesome.. it's like one bi family wher they will do anything to make your trip better.
The sea life has been incredible.. we'll be uploading lots of underwater shots later when we get home.. but the best part (and for those that wanted to come but didn't.. this is mainly to make you feel bad... we saw a WHALE SHARK.. very rare to see one.. and we got to snorkle with one. For those that don't know.. a whale shark is the largest fish in the sea. We saw a juvenile.. but as you'll be see in these pics.. still pretty darn big.. and an incredibl experience to see one:


Pretty awesome time.. now we get to hop back on the boat for more days.. and we can't wait.. this is the best way to dive.. just eat, dive, eat, dive, nap, dive, nap, dive, eat, sleep repeat. Pretty awesome.. tons of space to lie under the stars to sleep or in your room.. just awesome.
The folk on the boat are great too.. we had 4 spainiards who were a blast.. always ready with a joke.. just great folks.. my roomate is a man from Belgium.. and he fits in with us great as well.. This next trip will include Dave Lott.. and 10 folks from Hong Kong.. so we'll see how it goes.
I'll try to post again soon!!!!

Hey rob, Dad's having isssues with learning how to use a computer, and therefore cannot post on here anymore.

He wanted to say, nice pictures, *with this I agree*

He also wanted to mention that the food looks good, and he's jealous of you.

3rdly he wanted to say that Umass is in the finals for their division this year, and parks wants you to speak with the chancellor.

Hope your all safe and having fun.
