Finally getting back in the water after getting over coming
down with Dengue really hammered home just how much you miss diving when you
can’t get wet!
Given the rearrangement of courses over October ,November
ended up as a busy month with multiple tech courses, including finishing the
TDI Advanced Nitrox and Decompression Procedures courses with Asanga and Nick.
A good friend and diver from back in the MDA days, Brittin,
returned to the Philippines for a week in November to complete his Hammerhead
CCR factory training and TDI Air Diluent Decompression Procedures course. Brittin had been out of the water for quite a
while and had no other experience with Rebreather but took to the unit like a
natural, flying the unit fully manually in perfect trim within the first few
days!
Finally we ended up November (well, actually it was in
December but only just!) with a trip to Verde Island from Anilao Beach
Club. The day trip is quite easy from
Anilao and can be done with a 1.5 hour transfer on a large banka capable of
holding up to 20 divers. For divers
based in Manila it’s often through the Verde Island trip needs to be done from
PG, what many divers based in Manila don’t realize is that is actually possible
to do the same trip cheaper and with less transport headaches from Anilao than
it is from PG – we’re hoping to do a lot more of these trips in the coming
months as, quite simply, Verde Diving is awesome.
