Indonesia Trip
 
I wanted to share some exciting news...

Today Patrick and Shaun have landed in Jakarta Indonesia.

Patrick and Shaun will be spending the next 3 weeks exploring the main islands of Java and Bali and a few other of the smaller surrounding islands. Diving and coral collection is their main goal on this trip, but of course they will be taking some time to explore the culture and sights as well.

I will be documenting their trip here, uploading pictures and sharing some of their experiences over the next three weeks.

Looking forward to the updates Trina. I'm excited to have access to the hottest "cherry picked" corals Indo has to offer & I know my customers will be stoked when they see the quality Patrick is sending back to us!

Patrick and Shaun got in to see some suppliers before the weekend and saw some neat set-ups and interesting corals!

One of the coolest things I heard about was a fish which lived in the coral beds at the supplier.
It loves to swim up to you and let you pet it!

Check out the photos below;

Patrick explained to me that "It would swim up to you, turn its side towards you and look at you with one eye. If you moved to say try and get a better view of some corals the eye on that side moved and kept watching you and the farm owner explained to us that be was waiting to be pet" :)

tparsons 03-09-2011 02:31 PM
