Dive With the Whales

Did I tell you that at first I never had any interest in Scuba Diving? Yes, I really do not have such interest before. It was actually my sister Jenny who started this all. As you can see, my sister has been diving for quite a time. She was the one who convince me to go diving....

Anyway, just recently my sister did a dive. But it was something special and extra ordinary. What is so special about it? It was not about the sea, nor the corals, but rather the WHALE!

Yes, she dive along with the whales. Here are some of the pictures of here dive that she took herself:
She was under this whale taking this photo....



Some for her friends who took a closer look at the whale



I am really amazed... How I wish I will also have such experience. Perhaps one day my time will come. The pictures were taken in one of the resorts in Maldives. My sister works there as the Director for Operations in one of the resort (FOUR SEASONS) and always have the opportunity to dive and use the resorts facilities.

A Dive With Chao

Shortly before New Year, I did another dive... this time with Chao... What a way to close the year... Well, that is what diving is all about.. You will surely find a way to dive... You will always miss it...

The GRADUATES!






Finally the time has come for the diving graduation. Well prior to the distribution of the cards and certificates, the divers must prove that they are worthy of such.. They have to dive underwater without the gears and wear the gears from below the sea...



Well what can I say Congratulations to you guys!

The New Year Post Part 2

I am also very proud and happy indeed to have dived with some of my friends who decided to get diving license. They tried our discover diving activity before and from there decided to obtain a diving license. I accompanied them on one of their diving class to take a picture.

Not only did I take a picture but I took some videos as well... Here is one of the video:






Along the way, I was able to see some fishes enjoying a hearty meal... I could not help but take a picture of them...


After our dive, our boat docked in Cebu Beach Club. It was also the time where my fellow SWAT medic Gerry and some other PNP personnel had their first diving lesson. As always, the first diving lesson usually starts in the swimming pool. Well, I had the opportunity to take a picture of Gerry performing one of the basic skill... removing the BCD underwater and putting them back on...


Well, I was told that our Diving Instructor has scheduled for a scuba diving activity activity for the two groups together. Perhaps he has decided to come up with one Graduation Dive for the two groups....

The New Year Post

I have not updated this blog for quite a time. I have been very busy lately. But this does not mean that I have not dived already. Before anything else, Happy New Year to all!

The last diving post that I did was last June 30, will after that I did have several diving adventures. Here are some of them:

NOVEMBER 28, 2010

I would call this more of a Family Reunion Dive. One of our discover diving participant requested for another dive. This time together with here family. When I mean family, it includes everyone.. even her 3 year old sister came along. But of course only those who were old enough were allowed to dive..

The diving would not be complete without the picture of Mom and Dad:



Along with them are a group of nurses working in Chong Hua Hospital who also requested for a scheduled dive and some other friends. Well definitely it was another fun and adventure for them...

There were also some who are just friends of friends who came along to join. Definitely they find it great and have advised that they will certainly try it again.
