Lounging (when not DIVING!)
Completed 6 dives, 4 yesterday and two the day I arrived - Saturday!!
Quite amazing actually: Graded Final exams and turned in the grades Friday at 4 pm - 137 students (last term was 250 so this one
was really relatively easy).
Got my hair cut (for pictures after all, laughing), had a foot massage, then headed to the airport (Pudong).
Flew to Manila on the 12:30 am Cebu Pacific flight, arriving at 4:00 am. Immigration, customs, THEN I picked up a taxi to terminal 2!!!
I didn't know Philippine Airlines flew out of a different terminal - 15 mins away!!! Neither of these are the foreign airlines terminal either!
Flew on the 7 am flight to Dumaguete, where I was picked up by the Atlantis rep. in a truck. Had to get contact solution and SPF 25 and shaving cream - those dang restrictions - nothing over 3 oz!! No worries.
Arrived here in Dauin at Atlantis hotel - google it! Just as awesome as it looks (actually I would say MORE awesome).
They served me breakfast, we did orientation, set up my diving gear (after a short nap and a capuccino - have to get the coffee drinks in by 10 am or we pay for them - grin).
Gear on and finished - did orientation dive at 2 and they let me do another by 4 pm!
Off to an Apo Island trip - inclusive in my package!!!
grinning wildly... pictures SOMETIME!
