Diver's Notes

First dive of my honeymoon in Borneo, Malaysia.Having arrived to torrential rain and storms,I wasn't expecting more than a few metres visibility although it was actually ok.Didn't take my camera as I wanted to familiarise myself with diving and my equipment as I hadn't dived for 10 months previous.Saw a nice Cuttlefish and a Sea horse!!!
The topography was completely different to anything I've dived before which was interesting.Lots of hard and soft corals I've never seen before.
