Mooloolaba

[sharplittleteeth]

We're back.

Took a long weekend to go diving. In Mooloolaba. On the wreck of the ex-HMAS Brisbane.

It was amazing. The Brisbane sits upright on the sea bed. They cut access holes all through the structure so even beginner divers like myself can dive inside her. We swam through corridors, the old galley, even the computer control room. Saw lots of octopuses, three scorpion fish, and manages to scrape my hands up on all the barnacles. (I feel very macho now - I have dive injuries. I also now have a pair of gloves.)

My camera fritzed itself, so there aren't many photos. Instead, feel free to picture me wrestling an enormous octopus through vast, drowned engine rooms of war.

Was A there? If so... I can't imagine the no camera scenario.

Last year I watched both Warlords of Atlantis and
Captain Nemo and the Underwater City. I can do that.
