I've been fortunate enough to have this trip with my friends (colleagues also) at Green Island. During the trip the most asked question has been "why not stay longer? why don't you spend one more day here?" yes this is a fair question as we have come this far through hours of train and ferry (and throwing up) after all, but i decided to make the most of these two quality days, achieve things like play, get back the sense of maneuvering my attitude under water, running around the island (a spur of the moment decision), breathe in fresh air, enjoy the undisturbed night, watch the night sky, chat with friends and the newly known scuba mates, and...think... thank God, these things are achieved, and then it's time to go back home with satisfaction. however long i stay is not that important.
i don't have an under water camera yet, i know i will purchase one in the near future. until then the thing i need to do is to maneuver my attitude well enough for the sake of coral reef and many countless other lovely marine lives. the newly known scuba mates will send pictures to me via email, and surely i will share them up! can't wait!
There is a beautiful place we visited today, which is called "the church", around which is spacious, bright blue, along with two cliffs touching against each other and between which penetrating in the sunlight. one side of the cliffs has a horizontal area (like ceiling) below which i can fly with belly up and see my own exhaled breath taking shape as countless bubbles spreading out and running up to every pits in the ceiling. many times have i seen the water running into pits at the seashore, but this time this one is upside down, interesting! the sunlight radiating in between is especially an important element for the peaceful spot which is no wonder called The Church. thoughts running through my mind when i was staring up from the church, even, even, thinking about what it might be like under the ocean of Titan (the guardian moon of Saturn, which is thought to possibly contain life form outside The Earth). can there be life down there, even the tiniest one? can human scuba dive in that very ocean composed of methane with same diving gear? my dream perhaps is one day to be able to eye witness it!
