Snorkeling off the island ...730 pm Sunday 2 Jan +8 GMT

[redcatherine]

.. as you approach the island you see the dock to your right and the little palm gazebo on your left . The ferry pulls up to the dock . You get out onto the brilliant white sandy beach .

You walk along the beach it reminds of you the far island of Cocos Keeling . And you see a similar sign !!

"To ride the rip enter here float until it stops and then climb out to your left upon the sandbar back to shore to do it again !! "

You are curious .  You see the entry point is on the middle of the coast on the right side as you approach . You see the entry point is very shelly so you put on dive shoe booties with hard soles . You don your snorkle and mask .It is too shallow here to bother with scuba tanks. You enter the warm tropical waters and wade out to waist deep high just a few metres off the shore .

The water is turquoise and so clear that you can see for at least as far as your eyes can . There is 100% visibility over 100 metres in any direction. You don't need a shortie wetsuit the water is that warm !!

You lay down and let the water take you . The fish are gorgeous !! all sizes all colours . You just lay there spreading out your arms and legs to slow yourself down to enjoy the ride . It is like watching an aquarium you travel about 75 metres . Nothing but pretty fish and seafans all around you . Fantastic . You can't wait to get out and try it again . There are the  yellow tangs... giant striped black and white butterfly fish .... Midnight Blue parrot fish ...rainbow coloured wrasses . You could do this all day long how lovely .

You decide to call a few mates from Astral Pulse . You use your new underwater camera phone to video conference and say ."Oi this is cool come check it out " I'll be there at 730 pm tonight +8 GMT with some mates come and join us please .

Our circle projected there together and tested each other too lol .
The shirt was green Andrew got that  it said Dream On he saw E A
the bathers purple Lynda saw then
the snorkle and mask blue Debbie saw that
the esky blue and white Bill got that
we tried to see each other and that was successful but we had trouble seeing colour on others there
we agreed there were 5 strangers to us. Was one of them you ??

The first man was Bob 5'9" big frame blue eyes brown hair. 49 years old .  He had on a white collared shirt and dark coloured shorts .He had his hands on his hips he took a VB from the esky smiled and sat on it watching us lol.

The second man was n gray curly hair and glasses  and goatee thin tall man with Bob smiling seemed to be in spirit not live projector . He may have been Bob's father.

The next man was Colin he said he was English and something about Real Estate work or investments . I think he wanted to sell blocks/lots on the beach .

2 women were there too but they were more quiet hard to hear one lady busty big frame dark long curly hair . Another lady 40  years old skinny blonde hair .

We plan to go back on Wednesday see ya there
