Depends • Leaving (two weeks or more): Clothes (for at least 5 days), cash, camera equipment, laptop but the most the important item is nicotine gum • Traveling to the sea/ocean: shorts/t-shirts, cash, gum, her surface or my laptop (depends on how many planned dives), underwater camera gear, diving gear (while in Thailand everything but the BCD and regulator) Next four trips (two weeks plus): Diving Gulf of Thailand - leaving within a couple months (will post trip here at Big Mango/Thailand Regional Forums), back to the states for a holiday visit, Diving Philippines, Diving Belize (daughter will be diving with us for part of this spring trip) and I might post trip here/International Travel ^^^^ great stuff, I love reading posts like these, someone living life to the full, contrary to what you may read posted elsewhere, I dont envy and hate you, I applaud you. Life is for living, enjoy, best of luck to you and your family, an example for others to follow. PS, dont forget those photos. |

Both of us will have GoPros.
 If we don’t see them in the Gulf of Thailand, it’ll be one island we haven’t visited or made a dive at yet. If we don’t see them in the Philippines, it’ll be an interesting visit. Either of us have ever visited the Philippines but understand there are some nice diving sites.
We will see whale sharks and swim with them in Belize and why we have invited my daughter. We would like her to experience the adventure.

You can tell me, I was based at Hereford. Ask me what colour the boathouse is and I'll tell you, in a private setting obviously.  I realise we are both retired now but as your commanding officer I suggest you button it kiddo. I see, one of those on a need to know basis things, is it, like one of them James Bond films?  |

I'm also looking forward to the pictures. Would love to go diving around that monster of a fish. |
