busy busy

We've had a couple of really busy and fun days.
The most exciting and fun was to be part of the deployment of the new concrete blocks the DMCR has donated to the island.
These blocks will act as storm buffering, create new habitat and protection for many marine organisms and also prevent illegal trawling.
It was a fantastic time being on the barge, taking part of the cermony and then the deployment. It is such a huge operation.
I took a video showing how one section of blocks is deployed, just need to figure out how to get it uploaded here :)

We have, of course, also been diving in different locations. We also for the first time ever for the whole team went to Lighthouse divesite. It was a beautiful site, the diversity of different coral species was pretty outstanding and there were a big amount of different species of fish in all sizes. Came really close to a trigger fish, but he didn't even react, just chilled there.
