After a very long journey, catching 3 planes and being lucky enough to fly at all (typhoon threat) we made it back to Paris on Wednesday.
Luckily the weather was very warm here though the temperature has dropped. So much for the summer but hey, next week the South of France!
Below a picture from Hong Kong Airport.
Around The World in 2 Months
One of my biggest dreams: to travel around the world! Come back here to hear more about swimming with dolphins, whale watching, diving at great coral reef, all the operas I'll see during my voyage and more!

Last dives
Funny that it was enough to get to a different side of the island to find almost a perfectly flat ocean!
We went diving on the reef wall descending some 30m deep. My dive buddies were Japanese (the girls) and Filipino.
Ah, last dives before many months...

Stormy morning
We had a huge storm last night. Ferry and air services were interrupted and several boats were completely destroyed (see the picture below) but still I decided to dive as this was my last chance before flying back to Manila tomorrow and then to Paris.
Wet season
I wasn't posting much recently or a very simple reason: it rained quite a lot so I just hanged around the pool or the hotel room and that's it!
The rain was rather spectacular, first glance: our resort

Fish & coconuts
Look at these pretty fish. We marvel about them when scuba diving and snorkelling, so pretty and then guess what? You can eat them from barbecue on the beach!
Second picture is my today's breakfast: buko, local name for coconut.
Tomorrow: scuba diving!

Back to Panglao Island in Bohol
We're back!
And the sunshine too!
It's probably the only place in the Philippines where it doesn't rain and the weather is not cloudy.
After one night at the same resort we stayed at last time we changed it today, a more luxurious and comfortable one although better price!
We're loving it.
After a whole day spent by the pool we went for a massage and a lovely seafood (birthday) dinner on the beach.
What a lovely day!
In the programme we have more scuba diving around the island.

Ship Wreck scuba diving
Luckily Coron Bay is well known of its Japanese ship wrecks from WWII. There's 10 of them I think and some of them are over 200m long!!!!
We went for a day of scuba diving, at least it didn't rain. I saw 4 wrecks and dived into 3 of them. It is really amazing to be entering a sunken ship and different rooms one after another at sometimes 30m under sea level. Narrow passages, scared fish..
It really seemed like making Titanic again with James Cameron! Great experience. It really improved our experience of Coron.
But tomorrow morning we're leaving for Manila and... back to Bohol, Panglo island :)
