The riverfront near the market
After a gruelling 36 hours trip with 2 stop overs arrived in Manado. Staying in small village among the locals with the dive school a 5 min walk away. The reefs are beautiful and caught my first glimpse of an indonesian turtle at 20 m depth :). Still really tired / jetlagged and no pictures yet so will update soon. No internet cafe in the whole area except this one in teh "big town" so might take a bit before next update...
Wreck diving
Today dove to a wreck at 38 m depth, it's a personal low point :D
So far the trip has been great, the group of divers is really cool and this part of Sulawesi is really laid back, almost no tourist, and the locals are truelly firendly...
Hope to upload some pictures soon....

Some easy going monkeys (macaques?) and tiny Tarsier monkeys in the national park to top it off...
