@Karol Komodo, 2 dives in and gone from 4kg weights (my old BCD weight) to 2kg with my wings. Let’s see if I can get rid of more…

[Giles]

Not mine, luckily we dive with someone who can be arsed….

[Karol]

@Giles this is the way! And how do you guys feel against the currents?

[Giles]

Not dived in any substantial currents yet - first day was yesterday, so they kept it easy.

[Giles]

A first for us, Blue Ringed Octopus. Slightly poisonous….

@Giles what a great find!
BTW Boogs told me that Manta X is in Komodo. Have you seen it by any chance?

[Giles]

Not seen it yet. Will look out for it……

@Giles where are you diving? The Mrs. And I are heading back to Thailand in spring for a marathon of diving but are always looking for new places!

[Giles]

Komodo.....

@Giles will you visit the national park and ride a dragon?

[dirtyframer]

@Giles that would be a great detour for us, im going to have the Mrs. look into it

We are in the National Park. Well, to be accurate 100 meters away from the Eastern boundary. I suspect we may be offered the opportunity to go to one of the islands that the dragons live on at some point....

[Bridger]

Amazing @Giles, that sounds epic. Very jealous.

[Giles]

It would be way more epic if I had bought a fishing rod or two. Komodo is famous for its GT fishing
