The 2019 Epic Philippines Caper

Last week, I led a group of 25 divers from Eco Dive Center on a 9-day trip to the El Galleon Resort in Puerto Galera, Philippines. It was a return trip for me. I made the same trip last year with Spock, my best friend from high school (his real name is John, but he bore such a remarkable resemblance to Leonard Nimoy back in the day, the nickname stuck. At least with me). When we arrived, this was hanging by the entrance.

(Long story. It involves cracking open what was SUPPOSED to be a raw egg during a deep dive to 100' (it was hardboiled), and the jokes that ensued. "The yolk's on you," "Eggshellent," "You're never going to get ova it," Eggscetera)

Spock celebrated his birthday while we were there, so natch, we had a party...

And, obviously, the diving was incredible

One of the evenings was an 80's-themed wig party. These are some of the tamer pics...

The staff presented us with custom-made T-shirts...

...and were all on hand to see us off.
We're gonna miss you guys, but we'll see you next year!
