Will try # ?? truly be our sail date!?!
We have had so many roadblocks along the way to starting this adventure! So many companies have failed before us too! I have to applaud the diligence of our ownership team at Villa Vie Residences! Today, we finally got the news that we are welcome onboard the ODYSSEY this Saturday afternoon! Embarkation is officially starting! WOO HOO!! Yesterday we heard, Friday wasn't going to work, so I moved my flight back to Saturday Night. I am not moving it up to Friday, to join the masses. Sunday will be much calmer, and I want to see proof Saturday from the others before I board that Aer Lingus Flight!
STAY TUNED, WILL THAT BULLSEYE FINALLY READ "SHIP EMBARKATION 8/4/24 !"
I got to do 14 dives and 5 snorkel trips over our two weeks at Eco Cove Resort. I feel much more confident and comfortable diving, practice does truly help! Eco has these t-shirts that list all their Resort excursions - we made a nice dent in all of them and it's hard to pick a favorite!
Friday nights at Eco Cove Resort are sunset excursion time. All the guest are taken over to tiny Yeben Rock Island. This time the tde ws coming in quickly and alot of the island was already covered by water but that didn't dampen our party! We had a cooler of beer this time too! We also have become feriendly with the 2 families that were there sharing with us.
Eco Cove Resort in Raja Ampat - Oh what a wonderful place! I have truly loved my time here! Sharing it all with wonderful friends, made it even better. Here's some highlights above and below the water.
