Truk Lagoon, still on my dive bucket list. I hope that at some point in the future I can dive there. Today I was reminded of this again by this video. This time even together with sidemount diving.

Sidemount Special Week bei den Euro-Divers in Hurghada
Wir (Manne sowie ich, Martin, und zwei Tauchfreunde) waren vor zwei Wochen, Anfang Mai, im Zuge der Sidemount-Forum Special Week bei den Euro-Divers in Hurghada. Wir einen tollen Urlaub und eine tolle Zeit in Ägypten. Tolle Tauchbasis mit einer freundlichen und kompetenten Crew, schöne Tauchboote, noch schönere Tauchplätze (den Riffen tut der noch ein wenig schleppend wiederanlaufende Tourismus gut) sowie ein sehr leckeres Kamelsteak am Mittwochabend in Downtown Hurghada, sehr zu empfehlen!
Die anderen Gäste der Euro-Divers hatten bei Interesse die Möglichkeit, nach einer etwa einstündigen Infoveranstaltung am Nachmittag nach dem Tauchtag im Schulungsraum der Basis, am darauffolgenden Tag mit der Flasche auf der Seite statt auf dem Rücken zu tauchen.
Den kompletten Bericht findet Ihr hier.

Togo en apnée
Just rediscovered by accident. Two great videos from my favorite wreck, the Togo near Saint-Tropez, French Riviera. The videos have a great atmosphere, you need to watch it. And just try to ignore the poor white balance.
Apart from the fact that the athletic performance is inconceivable for me. Therefore, I have visited the Togo so far only with tank(s). ;-) Three times in summer 2005 with Martin Hess, a great video came out.

If I had never thought that a hurricane is capable of doing that – or put it this way: that it can do such a big change. Wow.

This extraordinary shot, taken by Tobias Friedrich, shows the Thistlegorm. Many were there, which makes the photo even more special. Wow!
