This shits and diving

21/7/11

After a mercifully quiet and restful night we are up early and heading off for some more diving. Again it is beautiful and we see highly poisonous scorpion fish, bump head parrot fish (like the napoleon fish) a trigger fish (they will attack if you get too close) and some turtles which may be the latest and most relaxed animals of the sea. The diver masters philosophy on diving is that it’s expensive and as you have paid for an hour you should dive for an hour. In principal good in reality I use my 200 bar of air quicker than this normally. Not to worry the dive leader will give me his second regulator when I am running low on air and I can use his tank. True to the normal course of things I am getting low on air after 40 minutes so spend the last 20 using the instructors air and predictably this is when we saw all the good stuff mentioned previously.

After the dive we realised that the slightly dodgy chicken James had eaten the night before, combined with the bug we think he has already have joined forces to make James rather unwell. His temperature is soaring, he has the shits and feels sick. The afternoon and evening is spent in the room, eating pringles (James snack of choice when he is ill) watching a movie downloaded from the internet. The plush surroundings and private fully function bathroom come into their element at this point!
