great pics mate!
We were over there also but didnt see any charter boats, which group were you at?
Funny how a thread like this gets 531 views, almost no comments but footy threads and Bali drug smugglers gets dozens or hundreds-bit sad really for FW??
Whats changing?

I am, as I've said, merely competent. But in an age of incompetence, that makes me extraordinary.
