Dive #1: Sabayor Besar, Komodo, Indonesia

• Time: 57 minutes
• Max depth: 26 meters
• Temperature: 27 degrees Celsius
• Visibility: 15 meters
• Current: None
• Slope coral
• Fish, etc.: Sweet Lips Fish, Leaf Fish, Parrot Fish, Fusiller Fish, Unicorn Fish, Clown Fish, Clam, Sea Anemones.

My dad kept floating up during this dive. Jerome passed him two extra kilograms. I don't know how Jerome stayed down with only two kilograms remaining on his weight belt.

Kweilin and I held hands during the dive. I felt more secure attached to her because I knew that I would always be close to the group.

Gliding over the coral made me feel like I was flying. I controlled my buoyancy with my breath. I would glide toward a rock, breathe in, pass over the rock, breathe out, and glide on.

All four of us (Jerome, my dad, my sister, and me) joined hands for our safety stop. We waited at a depth of 5 meters for three minutes and then ascended in a ring.
