Mission Dive 1.3

Second day passed ever so fast. I was enjoy every minute of it eventhough joanne punya kawan is ever so diam. But who cares?? Joanne pun tak mahu pedulikan beliau. Then this is the third day. the 4 of us was sharing a quad sharing room with a bathroom & outside there is a veranda and not keranda with 2 sets of tables and chairs. As i was sitting there to get myself into a upbeat mood, I glanced at the pine pokok and i saw this kepongpong. What a good day to start!! As a normal routine, 8am we got our breakfast then got ourselves changed dan selepas itu head to the dive shop untuk prepare the equipment.
1st dive of the day & the 5th dive of overall 8 dive that we are doing. Terumbu Tiga. What is Terumbu Tiga?? In english language it's dubbed Tiger's Rock. Sounds cool. Basically it's a rock boulders formation whereby if anyone been there before it's like a lego land. There are 2 so-called hole that you can go through between it. Initially i was abit scared as you can't the what's inside but when you just enters, it'll brighten up all of a sudden. Enough said. What to expect there? Maximum depth we went was 18.6 metres, visibility was so-so around 6-8metres. Dive time was 50minutes including 3minutes safety stop at 5metre. Below are some shots of Tiger's Rock n Roll.

Waiting our turn to go between the rocks.

This was taken when i'm through halfway. Looks scary at first but then who cares?? Mati-mati pun kena try.

This is me the kenneth norman taken by none other than my dive buddy Miss Ganas Lena. My buddy so hebat till she followed the dive master and did not bother me during the Tokong Laut dive. That's where i got lost!!! HhhmmmppPhhhH!!

But nevermind, I made friend with my 'ahmad'. His name is Saiful / Saifool / Saiphul or don't know how to pronouce it. There's too much of pronounciation on my 'ahmad's' name. Below this shot looks like a feather duster to me. It is named Feather Stars if i'm not wrong.

Not very clear though as my photo tembak skill is newbie in diving and i do not have strobe light to powderfry it. Nama mereka ialah Sweet Lips again if i'm not mistaken. The lips are like 'Shu Qi' a taiwanese soft porn actress turn actress. Something like angelina jolie.

This one I don't know weather it's Family Fungiide => Herpolitha limax, ctenactis echinata OR Family Agariciidae => Pavona Clavus. It looked like a 'tungku' in cantonese.Yum Yum if it is cooked with sea cucumber. 'hoi sam marn tungku kai kiok'.

A real beauty i would say. Can you see these bevy of beauties up in the sky?? I doubt so.

Everything also think think think.... This is think is coral fire. Cloud also cannot do this. Only Fungus that grow on tree are able to match it.

The Nemo baby. So small yet so acting brave. Mahu acah kita dan menakutkan kita.

And this is the Emperor Fish!!!! Too bad again, can't get too close to it as i was in a hurry to tembak as i'm abit lacked behind. Go so fast also no use.

Nudibrunch!!!! Phyllidia Coelestis (Phyllidiidae). Normally it will grows to about approximately 7cm. Again!!! KNN!! Unable to take a good shot due to that bugger go so fast.

Anemone.

I realised that this post is another bloody long post with tonnes of shots!!

Don't know mart 7 fish. Totally forgotten. Too much for a newbie diver to memorise.

If there's more time, this shot is even better when you can see the whole biji fish. What's that erected?? Whip Corals.

At 5metre doing a 3 minutes safety stop.

Then Miss Darlie. Beside Miss Darlie is Mr. Roland. He can even take a short nap with the bumpy water!!!! Can you see joe??? he's sooo lonelyyy......on his ownnn....awww aww aww..(Mr.Akon - mr.lonely)

Picture terbalik and i'm too lazy to rearrange it as it has around 40 photos!! I'm getting mad..

I wondering if underwater got any peace sign. This fella like to do weird things like 'WOW' & 'Cool'. She can even do posing!!!!!!! This photo she reminds me of Chun-Li of street fighter.

Lena with Jon the dive master cum instructor. HE'S AN AMERICAN TOO!!!!....wak wak wak..

3 Sakai with funky hair style. Lena looked like a turtle.

Then after lunch. Got a shot of Joanne. Sitting alone sniffing magazine. Reason behind she's alone is she dissed her friend.?? Is it??

Lansi pose, Gaya pose!! w0ow...Time was around 2pm when everything is done and on the boat to our next dive site. De Lagoon is the name of the dive site. Maximum depth 14.5 metres at around 51 minutes or 50bar. Visibility is good, 10 metres maybe. I wonder it is accurate or not on the visibility. Like abit 'kwa jiong'. Anyway kwai lo like to do that. Mereka adalah yang terpijak konon!!

Even kicik miow kids also can dive. But is consider fei jai.

What to expect from that site?? There's a part of sandy area. Then heaps of corals!!! As i was flapping trying new style of diving towards the 1st tour area, we encounter this puffer. The look is like a bad guy. Cunning fella. If you swim slowly, it's swim a fairly distance around you to check you out. I'm human la not fish. Can't kongkek me. sorry. Mouth also cannot close. Not handsome somemore.

Star attraction at De Lagoon. The cleaner shrimps. If you place your hands out & not moving it, these bunch of shrimps will come over to your palm. Why does the shrimps comes over to your palm? It's because the hand is dirty & full with dead cells, that is why!!! So the Cleaner Shrimp's job is to clean.

Fish. When we were crossing along a stretch of corals, we saw a pair of Titan Trigger Fish. Other name to it is Hainan Fish because this fish punya head got wind one!! They happy then they won't kacau & if their head got wind they'll sure come kacau you!!!

Asked you to do the frog style swim you don't want!! All the sand got kicked up.

No idea what the hell is this.

Angel fish i assume.

Ever wonder why there's white sand?? If not because of Parrot fish punya jasa i think there won't be nice sand. It's their shit.

Another Nemo

And another Nemo.....

And and and.....N E M O.

Lagi lagi lagi lagi nemo. This one is so brave till want to come out and gigit me. bodoh.

This Puki punya fish is called Damsel Fish. Another terrortorial fish like Trigger Fish. Kecik Kecik Cili Padi till i wanted to kick it!!

Nice view of a Coral.

Up floating on the water.

This shot was taken in Sigi Bay. And Joanne was following us to dive. Bad bad bad again. Halfway through the dive journey, memory card was already full!!! So couldn't take much photos. There's a moray eel that wwas quite a nice fish to shot.

Yellow Box Fish.

Don't who the heck is this. She's cycling in the water. If my aunt saw this, surely she'll be shot with an assault riffle.

I think this is Joe. Everytime also like this. Head down & the leg is up above. Asked him to put extra weight also don't think he did that. Joanne was floating quite above us. I wonder why. Like we were gooing to trick her into something.

Fish fish....

A plankton i guess....

Miss Ganas with loads of antics underwater posing. I can't recall back what we did after the dive & during the night....oh ya!!! we missed the watching of ninja turtle hatchlings that night!!

To Be Continued.......
