As you know I'm an
avid diver, having had my PADI dive certification in 2005. Since then I have had the opportunity to log numerous dives around the islands off Malaysia's coast.
I managed to "racun"
Dr Asri, our Anesthetist in the hospital to take the
Open Water Diver Certification, which is basically a "licence" to scuba dive and the first step to experience what the wonderful world beneath the waves has to offer.
Part of the certification is to do a few dives in the open water (as opposed to the confined waters of the pool)
So one fine July weekend, we took a flight to Kuala Terengganu and met up with Divemaster Halimi of
Ocean Elements.The speedboat brought us to Pulau Perhentian where we spent the weekend and for Dr Asri to practice his ability to breathe underwater :P
More pics after the jump..
