Cebu - Moalboal - and 2 new divers in the Padi club


We learned to dive @ http://www.savedra.com/

So, i was a bit panicked when we landed in Cebu and drove to Moalboal. partly because i was having a little bit of anxiety about the whole undertaking and partly because we were driving past a shanty town. But we got to Moalboal and signed up for an open water padi course. the course occupied all of our time in Maolboal. Terry loved it but i am a bit afraid of floating of into the deepblue yonder.
i only dived to 12 meters and terry went to the full 18.
the cool bits were seeing turtles and nemo. we also saw dolphins frolicking while we were having breakfast.
Our diving instructor was Dino and he was very very patient. we were lucky that it was just two of us doing the open water course. we also met a girl called grace from Devon and a mad irish girl called siobhan who was doing her rescue diver course.
in the evenings after diving one of the lads would buy beer and we would all have a few bevies together which was cool.
we were invited to stay for the opening of a new dive shop but decided i would not be able to handle the slaughtering of the goat.
we landed on the resort island of Boracay today and will probably spend a week here. not sure where we are moving to next. we have not done any videoke....yet! we promise the photos will be put on soon.
