Sitting in darkness and rain in Denmark, I dream myself back to the wonderful Island Lembongan. Below the surface my memories are many with Manta and Mola Mola encounters as the very highlights.

Early morning exercise before diving.

Surface interval :-)
The Komodo Dragon is quite an animal. The boat in the background is our liveaboard. I highly recommend a trip to Komodo. Both above and below the surface, it is rather unique.
