Spearfishers

 |
||
| This was on the next day... Actually really nice diving.... There were few big fish here at the Coral Coast... The reason is that the locals are spearfishing along the shores and the reefs.... | ||

Hans
11 October 2003 | ||
 |
||
| Divemaster Hans from Bavaria at the tip of the boat. He ended up having lived and worked in our hometown. He took us to 38m depth that morning. When he asked us if we wanted a second dive in the afternoon, we declined politely and did a calm nice shallow dive... | ||
Zwei Stella
11 October 2003 | ||
 |
||
| Another nice thing after diving are the beers you have.... After that was buffet time... Where a German lady asked the waiter and pointed at some vegetables - 'what do you call these?' - the waiter with a nice smile answered politely 'Aubergines' - 'Wow' she said, 'we call them the same way!'. Diving makes stupid. | ||
