Diver's Notes

First wreck dive. Visibility was better than usual, according to our guide, Mr. George Ang Dy Pay (which, coincidentally, was his birthday today). Went around the LST ship wreck, and saw clams stuck to different fixtures. Quickly saw two humongous bat fish, and a Sting Ray.

At the end of the dive, I think the group messed up the site by disturbing the silt.
