Nobody looks good in snorkel gear

But the snorkeling here is amazing. Today we drove up to Tulamben, about half an hour north of Amed. There are some beautiful reefs and a rainbow of fish. We also got to see a shipwreck - the US cargo ship Liberty sunk over 60 years ago, and it's only 50, offshore. Granted, diving would be better, but I wasn't ready to commit to a four-day, $400 diving certification course. I'd definitely tell people to get certified before they come. I should have taken it for-credit at IU.

Update from yesterday’s situation: We talked to Unieng, the Balinese co-owner of Bayu Cottages, about what happened. She said those were just stupid kids, that there aren’t any Muslims around here. Either way, she’s going to report it to the local co-op.
