Sean and I finally got around to developing the film from our disposable underwater cameras that we used on our vacation in Bali and the Philippines. As the weather turns colder here in Michigan and there is actually snow predicted for Friday, it's nice to think of the tropical weather we had about a year ago half a world away.
Some of the pictures are when Sean and Daniel went snorkeling in Bali. They were taken out in a boat and given lots of food to attract and feed the fish that swarmed around them.
The gray blob with spots are the best pictures we could get of snorkeling with whale sharks near Legaspi, in the Philippines. Trying to swim along with a huge fish who was moving pretty quickly while simultaneously trying to snap pictures didn't work out so well. Here's a picture of what the whale sharks really looked like.
The other pictures are of me and Sean snorkeling and swimming while we stayed on the island of Palawan. For most of the days we took boat tours around to hidden coves and lagoons and were able to snorkel in really clear water.
Sitting here in my sweats and wrapped in a blanket in the Doyle basement, it's hard to remember being that warm and carefree. Developing these pictures brought back some good memories - I hope we are able to make it to New Zealand while it's still summer.
