Today was not a great day for me. I woke up feeling like crap. Looks like whatever I had been fighting, finally caught up to me. I ate some breakfast and went back to bed until 10 am. I woke up, asked the cooks to make me some ginger tea and have been sipping on... Continue Reading →

If this isn’t paradise I don’t... Continue Reading →
Aloha! The journey started off with an early morning flight. Because of traveling through the US, I had to be at the airport for 5am to catch our 8am flight to LAX where we would take a connecting flight to Hawaii. Traveling with Scuba gear is always interesting. There was a lot of planning involved... Continue Reading →
The days are counting down, my journey to Truk Lagoon is only a few days away now. I am beyond excited. I've started to watch more videos and learn more about Truk Lagoon. The military operation was called "Operation Hailstone". It consisted of two days of bombardment crippling the Japanese military. During recon, over 400... Continue Reading →
