Going without her

[aposhark]

To Aposhark, the jap restaurant has gone on Malapascua. Apparently the owner knew a bit about food but little about running a restaurant. The place looked like a tip to me.
We didn't go to Ging Gings as the food in TSDs new restaurant was so good.
White Sands Resort where we stayed 2 years ago has been demolished.

The "world famous" still standing after 15 challenge at Sunsplash has changed from shots to beer. None of us thought we could knock back 15 San Migs in under a minute so we didn't enter.

A good time was had by all by I really did miss the wife.

Thanks.....
What is TSD's BTW ?

How many nice threshers circled you?

My wife was in Malapascua a few days ago (she has family there) and told me that there are few guests arriving. Did you think it was quiet too?

TSD= Thresher Shark Divers. They have a new building with a proper dive shop and a bar and restaurant on the top. It's between Blue Coral and Bluewater resorts. The restaurant had only been only 3 days when we arrived and they were still training the staff. The menu is good but I told the manager it needs at least one Filipino dish per day.

We only saw one Thresher. I put a video of it on YouTube.

There seemed to be a lot of coming and going while we were there but it wasn't mega busy. Some days we had 12-15 on the dive boat.

Hiya,
OK, I have seen the new shop
Next time, go with "Dan's Dives" - I never had more than 5 others with me on any dives, and this was also in the high season. Dan's set-up is much more low key and hence friendlier.
Too many divers = no threshers
I saw three on my first dive, maybe one was the same later as earlier on.

I will search for your YouTube Vid

Thanks for the link, Dom

Would you give up smoking if you could get up close and personal as in this vid?

These sharks are truly awe-inspiring when they come to have a look at you.........

I am supposed to be at the top of the food chain...... and not the other way around.....

I kind of admire people that do stuff like that, but when it comes to sheer lunacy as to tempt fate........ Forget it.....

The law of averages tells you that you can only do it with impunity for a while....
Sooner or later you are "the" breakfast....

Unfortunately the people at the top of the food chain have eaten most of the fish further down the food chain so the people at the top of the food chain who merely want to dive and look at the fish lower down the food chain are disappointed.
So the locals who financially benefit from us divers may end up losing out if the fish stocks are depleted as the divers won't come. So the Aholes chucking dynamite in the water will cause everyone to end up with nothing.
