Restful Sunday
Today was very much a day of rest. From the beginning everyone had a very chilled vibe. Heather and Brittany went on a deep dive with Kylie to complete a component of their advanced open water certificate. The rest of us lazed around, read books and napped in the shade.
At dinner time some locals climbed a coconut tree and brought us six big, golden and delicious coconuts. They were full and sweet but turned out to be a little bit more than we bargained for. After a wonderful dinner of lok lak (a traditional Khmer dish) and French fries Brittany, Heather, Megan and I walked over the hill to the beach at Coconut Bay for a night swim. The sky was clearer than last time but the moon hadn’t risen so both the stars sparkling the in the sky and the bioluminescence sparkling in the water were particularly impressive.
Tomorrow we get back to work! Starting with village clean up work in the morning and finishing with a dive in the afternoon. Let’s go!
Hi out to Brittany & Heather, guess I have some diving to catch up on in the BVI. Enjoy, learn lots, see you there. Thank you to all the team leaders!!
Love the posts, look forward to reading about the daily adventures. Is the bioluminescent plankton what we saw in the ‘Life of Pi’ movie? Way to go Megan, happy to hear you got your diving certification. Love, Mom
Way to go Brittany and Heather. The night swims with the bioluminescence plankton sound fantastic. What an experience. We love reading the posts. Thanks to all the team leaders and dive master. Good luck with the village clean up. Enjoy the remainder of the week. Love mom
Good Morning Cambodia! It’s hard to believe you only have a few more days together. The memories you are making together will last a lifetime. I would like to tahnk ROV for these volunteer programs. Thanks to Jane for doing such a great job with the blog and for taking care of our girls. Thank you to Kylie for instilling such great diving skills in these young women. Hope you all have a great last couple of days together. Miss you Brittney xoxo
