[status]Oops. I was remiss in giving an updated on our safe arrival several days ago. We've been so immersed in our surrounding, diving and exploring that I've been skipping the updates. Michael and Kate are taking their Open Water certifications. They finish their class today. It's been great to see them both enjoy the chalenge. The water is outstanding here with clarity and fish. The reef is not great, but everything else is good, much better than our stops along the west coast of Sumatra. We found the reefs better in Mentawai (so far), but the sheer volume of fish here and variety is great. I'll be doing my Rescue Diver this week, Sarah and E will get up to Advanced, and maybe Rescue if they are up for it. We have more friends arriving Friday, so we are hoping to get our extra certifications finished before they arrive. We plan on being here until probably the second week in December before leaving given the current weather patterns. All is well!
