Ever wondered what a 'panuba dive cat' looks like?....

Panuba Dive Trip (Pt.2)

The People.

George. This amazing and talented cook took care of all our meals. His boat was packed to the max with fish, king prawns, sotong, chicken, beef steaks, lamb chops, huge button mushrooms, lamb sausages, spaghetti....(i'm getting hungry already). Here he is preparing a scrumptious BBQ for us. You can sample some of his delicacies at his pub, D'Tavern in Port Klang. Tip: try the lamb shank. It's to die for.

Feeding frenzy!

Music maestros. They belted out tunes from The Beatles, BeeGees to Freddy Aguilar. Talent!

Patrick on guitar...

...Malek on the flute...

...and the tabla.

Mr.Singh?

Divemaster Shamsul and Dive Instructor Drew, chilling out between dives.

This dude is a one man show. Need a master negotiator for the duty free shops at Tekek? Your boat drifts away in a storm in the middle of the night? Who d'ya call?.....Wak!

Divemuster, photographer extraordinaire... busy preparing his underwater camera casing and strobes for a dive. Check out the amazing shots he took on his dives at cybershack.blogspot.com.

(19/4 - 23/4/06), Pt.1.

Thanks Divemuster & Ladyhawk, for talking me into joining this trip
when i was down and out. Marlene, for taking care of my Batcave.
Philip and Sheppy for checking up on me. And every thought and
prayer that went out for me during these trying times. You are
God sent. I know because when i thought about all that i have
lost in recent times, i saw this again (see next 2 pics)... my fifth
rainbow. I remember telling DM, i knew i would see it
this trip. I know i'm still heard, thought of and
cared for.

my fifth rainbow...
