So today is the day I leave.

Same Day as the First.

In the morning I slept past my alarm and woke up at the exact moment the car arrived to pick me up, thankfully they waited 5 minutes for me to get myself together.  I did however forget my diving permit back at the house and had to drive all the way back to get it.  Today I am diving all alone; I have no Christi and no Carly with me.  I do have Ali and Michelle with me though.  I don’t know how this worked out but I did the same two dives I did on my first day in Palau and ate on the same beach. 

Ullong sandy bar was no different but it was nice being able to go back and see things again but Siase Wall was very cool.  I was very relaxed that dive and tucked my knees into my chest and let the small current carry me far along the wall.  The corals were absolutely magnificent on this dive, probably the best I have seen so far.  Not much else to add to the dives than that.

When I got back on land Christi was waiting there showing everyone her GoPro videos of me being a goof.  After I had my shower at the shop her and I took off for a drive to her place; she lives an hour away on a different island.  It was very cool getting to see a different part of Palau.  I loved seeing the lush rainforest and the sky as the sunset.  We got back at around 7 but this is where her and I parted finally, I was very sad to see her go but she gave great advice on travelling and I don’t think I will ever forget it. 

I headed to my room feeling just a tad hungry, so my new roommate Marcello and I went to the store and got the ingredients for nachos!  I gorged myself on cheese and chips that night but I shared because I am Canadian and that’s what we do.


Going to bed was bitter sweet because I knew that this was the last night I would be sleeping in Palau and that tomorrow was the last morning I would wake up here.
