So today I'm heading out to Sharm, Egypt for my first ever diving liveaboard. I dived a few times in the Red Sea, so I know what to expect from an ecological perspective. The Zookeeper and some other characters from the blog are coming too. The trip is being organised by Ace Divers.
We're going to be on the Snapdragon - a Flowers of Sinai boat. By all accounts online the boat is meant to be pretty diabolical - a fact that is at odds with my penchant for 5 star luxury. However, the Zookeeper reliably informs me that the week is made by the diving and banter and not the accommodation.
In preparation, I've bought some more snazzy thermocline stuff, sea sickness tablets, Imodium, spare fin straps, budgie smugglers, sun cream (I am from Scotland, I have fair skin and I will burn) and new shades. Add to that a smattering of my usual dive kit and I'm set.
The trip will also coincide with my 200th dive. I've got something special planned for that. ;)
