Weekend @ Pulau Aur

Zonghe & I went back to Pulau Aur for our diving trip over the past weekend. Along with Mike, Kat & David (who's doing advance course), we had lotsa fun there! =)

We left on Friday evening abt 7.30pm at GE Building for the bus pick up- the bus was packed! There were abt 18 Open Water Learners on board too. And another group of leisure divers like us.

We arrived in the jetty at abt midnight and the ferry took abt 4hrs, reaching Aur at about 4.30am. Lights out at about 5am and we woke up the next morning at about 9am. =)

After a nice breakfast at the Diver's Lodge, we went out for our first dive at abt 10am. Lunch was served after the dive... yummy roasted chicken w sambal chili, cucumber, carrot n corn. =) We went for our second dive after lunch at about 1.30pm.

Donuts were served for tea break. Yummy donuts freshly made... We ate it w peanut butter n also hershey's chocolate sauce. ;) Sinful! ;)

Third dive and the last for Sat was at about 5pm.

Zonghe went for night dive at about 7.45pm- pitch black. I didn't go for it, cos not prepared for night dive yet. Didn't bring along a dive torch either. Zh borrowed one from Mike.

Dinner was BBQ seafood n chicken n all. =) We ate together at abt 9pm after the night divers come back at 8.45pm. All went for night dive except Kat n I.

We spent the night playing 'Saboteur' in the room and lights out at about midnight too.

The next morning we've to wake up at 6.30am cos first dive at 7am.

The current was v strong for the first dive, so we aborted dive and went back to rest and have breakfast. The second dive for Sunday was at 9.30am.

We left the island (with our packed nasi lemak) at about 12.30pm. Bye Bye Aur...

After a nice nap on the boat (Samudera) we arrived at the jetty at about 5pm. Stopping over for a short break, we boarded the coach at about 5.30pm and left for Singapore.

We reached the RiverWalk at about 9pm at night. Had dinner then home sweet home. =)

Tiring but v fun weekend! =)
