Whaleshark whaleshark where are you? :( We didn't manage to spot whaleshark, but nevertheless we enjoyed these dives very much. It was a cosy boat ride with plenty of space for only the four of us. Thank you Hj Kula for bringing us out!

Our first dive at Cement wreck was really cold for me. Temperature was about 26 degrees and I shiver mad in my 3mm wetsuit. Still testing my strobe light, I did not venture much around the site. Our 2nd dive, Hj Kula anchor down at Pyramid reef. But after we descent, we can only see sand and oh my... sand! Sand patch...! I got excited and patiently move around to look for gobies. We spotted diagonal gobies and yellow gobies. Absolutely beautiful, only wish that I have got a DSLR or a macro lens at least for better pictures. :(

After about 25 mins dive at the sandpatch and snapping away with Eric on the gobies, Simon and Joseph signalled to ascend. Simon was wondering hard what Eric and I were trying to photograph! hehe... For our 3rd dive, we descent at Pyramid Reef. Simon and Joseph spotted anemone crab where as me and Eric did our usual, practising with our camera on whatever we can find. :)

Here are some pictures...
