Just got to tell you of 2 of the highlights of my latest diving trip:

I was looking at a beautiful coral-covered pinnacle, surrounded by an aquarium of tropical fish, and the local, famous cleaner wrasse (c. 2" long) came up and started to nibble round my mouth. It then went in my ear and I could feel little tiny nips. I was so gob-smacked I forgot to take my reg out so it could clean inside my mouth. My mate started to take a photo but his camera charge failed him just at that moment. Story of my life!

On the last dive of the hol we'd been watching dolphins cavorting near the reef, during our lay-off period. When we set off for the next dive site we could see them travelling parallel to the boat. Luckily we were all kitted up for a drift dive so when we got there it was all hands in the water asap. We just got ourselves underwater and settled as a pod of 7-10 of them glided sedately by. Absolute MAGIC!
