Dive log: Sipadan Island, March 4th

Dive day number four. Gloriously weatherful day. Hour-long boat ride out to Sipadan Island, three pretty deep dives, and then a nice rest on the way back. Noodles for lunch. Rented the shop’s underwater camera; took it out for two of the dives and David used it on the third. Emphasis on an awesome day. Tops of my feet are rightfully burned.
