22 June 2011:

I spent a lot of time diving below some of the coral overhangs to chase the sharks - I found the ability to equalize the pressure in my ears that I use for flights worked great for diving! Many were surprised at how deep I could go. Other that the guide, I was the only one going to that depth. The guide also lured sharks with the fish he caught, and held them for us to touch. The small metre-long sharks felt softer than expected, were very docile, and didn't seem to mind being touched.
