Palau

What an amazing place! Palau – an archipelago in Micronesia and about a 2 hr flight from Manila – is beautiful both above and below the water – the variation of blue was phenomenal. Friendly people, great diving and fantastic local brew. It was a fantastic vacation – we even got our Nitrox certs!

Ok, ok, so because we were there for the diving….even though we have no pictures from underwater unless some friends we made send us some….the life was fantastic. Large sharks (grey, white tip, and black tip), massive wrasses, huge schools of yellow fin and barracuda, hawksbill turtles, moray eels, starfish, nudibranks, amazing corals and on and on!

Here are a couple of dive sites we spent alot of time at – click because you can see underwater pics!
- Blue Corner – great for hooking in and floating as the world goes by!
- Blue Hole – went from 30 ft to 119ft and was super cool!

Here are some shots (forewarning – lots of pictures of the water).
