It was a long three weeks on-duty (August 24 - September 13, 2007) ... but it was damn fun. Diving every weekend... hahahahaha
Before the "Merdeka Sailing Race" went diving to accompany my big boss at Bontang, buoy #18. It was pretty good, just the timing wasn't to great as we arrived late in the afternoon and started the dive around 17:00.
The next weekend I went back to Bontang to accompany my Emergency Response team while they were getting their open water license. Special thanks to the whole Bontang Dive Club and to the instructors Rheza & Igor.
The following weekend, after the National Fire & Rescue Competition technical meeting at Senipah, got a chance to search and survey a few new divespots down in Balikapan. Hopefully during the november competition we can get a chance to find that jap submarine wreck in front of the Senipah resort.
