Scuba Continuation

We were uploading pictures of our dive trip when we were forced out of the Internet cafe on Nyepi day. Here are the rest of the pics:


The ceremony going on behind Kendall as she gets out of the water is a pre-Nyepi day ritual in which Balinese people come to the ocean to cleanse themselves of their sins before the new year.

I took a few videos underwater, but I think this one was the best. During our ascent we came across a huge school of Jack fish. Pay close attention to how scared Kendall looks when I pan the camera in her direction. I few seconds later the video gets a little jerky. That is Kendall grabbing my arm and pushing me into the school first just to make sure that I get eaten first if these little guys happen to be hungry.

It's a good thing you didn't get too close to that lionfish - I've heard their venom is lethal, but I've never been out with one.
