bevied, enjoy your weekend trip with Laixi.....
As for DM, u sure u want to do it? Ya, can work as free labour to get some diving but then , u cannot take pics liao . Also free only to sites off Mersing or if u are lucky, Redang, no big deal. Work so hard during the week, might as well pay a bit to enjoy leisure dives.
But if u want the training , then it is a diff story. BTW, DM course fee = price of one strobe :think:
A friend once told me if you spend about $300 for a weekend dive trip to Malaysia, go 4 times $1200 liao. Might as well save that $1200 and do Manado or Bali or Sipadan for a 5D4N to 7D6N trip. Better diving and pampered like a king. Now with AirAsia, Sipadan is even cheaper if u book months ahead. JB-KL-Tawau.....Airfare prob SGD300 only. Then u pay RM 400 a nite in Sipadan. 5D4N RM 1600 = SGD 800. So there u have it $1200. Longer travelling time, but you want it cheap rite :bsmilie:
U should try to dive Manado if the Silkair promo comes on again. Actually it's Lembeh to be specific. Hopefully to dive there again before the year ends, with a new macro system.
