Carry the Flag
Yesterday was my first dive as a leader. The dive itself was far from special (we dived the Moltke shipwreck at Magnetic Island, which is of very poor condition, and there was also aweful visibility - just some 4-5 meters) however it was extremely joyful to watch how Roey was keeping track of me, always following me from above and beyond. I also got to carry the diver’ flag, signalling for ships that we are below. We did several rounds near the wreck, saw a few fish - Roey got real excited because he’s seen nothing in the course, but for me it cannot be counted among the best dives I’ve done.
After returning to Townsville we spent the morning here just exploring the nice Sunday market. It has excellent fruits and veggies, along with some arts and crafts. To my surprise it was not packed at all, with some good distance between the stalls and people not disturbing each other. Now we’re done with the market (we ate here an excellent breakfast - plenty of tiny dutch style pancakes) and we’re going to see Townsville’s aquarium, so Alex will get a feeling of what he misses by not diving.

Yep - its cool being the lead diver
As you can see in the sidebar, I finished scanning all of your notebook and posted it on the site. I’m also now retyping the pages so it will be easier to read - I’ve alread done so for the first page (although there are some places where I couldn’t understand your handwriting, so I replaced these with specific markers, and the scans are still accessible from the page).
Anyway, have fun and good luck!
