It's been a lovely 2 days off the bike. I have had my feet up relaxing on a boat the entire time (apart from the 5 dives we managed to fit in when I was underwater!)
For any divers reading this the visibility was pretty poor (like between 1-4m) but the sponges were cool, and the fishies were nice, and diving is cool anyway and just fits in so well when you feel like taking a few days off the bike that the low vis didn't really matter that much. I am now a certified Advanced Open Water Diver!!! And scored a free t-shirt (which is great because I only had the three I was wearing at the airport).
Buuuut... we did have one dilemma - what do you do when you're planning a night dive starting in 2011 and finishing in 2012 and need to have a new years toast??? The guys at Scuba Nation Cambodia have it all figured out!!! Here's how it works - all you need is a pot from the kitchen, a bottle of champagne, and a piece of oxygen tubing from the divers first aid box!!!
1. kneel on the ocean floor
2. turn the pot upside down and fill it with air using your occy (you might need to take a bit of extra lead so that you don't float up too much too!!!)
3. pop the bottle of champagne in the air pocket created by the pot
4. insert oxygen tubing
5. use the tubing like a straw take your regulator out of your mouth and have a drink!!!
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE :)
Tomorrows plan is to retrace the 110km back to Kampot then continue a further 10-20km I think (need to check the map before I go to sleep) to the little town of Kep. Meant to be a lovely spot. Will write more then.
