Today’s day of diving starts off in chaos. Callie thought that he had set the alarm to the new time, which he did not! So we are still in bed when Pedro comes knocking on the door!! The biggest challenge to get Luc up and dressed whilst he is still asleep! It is a far ride to the southern point of the island where we pick up the rest of the divers and where we dive. We were a bit unhappy to start off as there are certain dives we want to do and they promised to put us in advanced group. This group however is a father, daughter and son who is doing an advanced course and the younger son who just started diving. But eventually we reach an agreement and get to do Columbia Deep, which is a stunning dive! See eels and turtles and Callie even spots a scorpion fish. Luc goes for a snorkel during the sit-out time and loves it. The second dive at San Francisco Wall is just as beautiful. The visibility is just incredible! After the diving Luc snorkels in the pool and then we take a taxi back home (no energy to do the 2 km walk today!!). We have lunch at home and all fall asleep – these deep repetitive dives are too much for us oldies!! We are still struggling to adjust to the new time and cannot understand why we are starving when we wake up – just to discover that it is 8 already. Quick, but stunning dinner (pasta for the boys and the best tuna for me) at Le Chef. Where after I try to get my blog loaded and my emails sorted. Of course, now neither my wireless or ADSL is working. Something must have gone wrong whilst people were trying to help me get connected. I spent more than 30 minutes trying to get logged on and eventually ask if I can use one of their computers. Thank goodness it can read my memory stick and I manage to get some of the blog updated, and screen through the 240 emails (of which about 200 was junk emails!) collected during the last week. They just about kick me out of the internet café at closing time – ohh, it is so frustrating!!! Sometimes we do need the technology!!!
URGENT MESSAGE : To Uri – ET please phone home!!!!
