Philippines trip blog
I just read a great bit of blogging by Allison (a SF Bay area diver who usually writes about BAUE charters and shore diving around Monetary plus the occasional Florida cave trip) about a trip to Atlantis Puerto Galera in the Philippines last Aug. Lots of interesting critter photos and some commentary on the couple days of GUE friendly tech diving they enjoyed in addition to the resort diving. Any resort offering five dives a day that will feed you lumpia sounds like fun to me. Defiantly worth some cyber diving when you have some time to read it all.

Re: Philippines trip blog
I love Allison's blog, because she's so honest about everything -- and of course, I know her and Rob, too.

Re: Philippines trip blog
The Philippines is absolutely #1 on my to-do list of diving destinations. I had an eye on a FABULOUS looking liveaboard opportunity being advertised on ScubaBoard, until my husband pointed out to me that, for the cost of getting both of us there and on the boat for ten days, we could spend over a month in Mexico . . .
