Palau

We finally got to go around the rock islands!! In Palau you must purchase permits for everything....fishing...diving...sailing and all that goes with that. It's quite expensive so we have been waiting for the boss to arrive to take the boat out. The boat has been in great condition some we came back from our visit home.  We had the engines checked out by a real mechanic! Not island style mechanic haha. Turns out they are both fine but we have a to replace the fuel pump in the starboard engine. 
We took a tour around the rock islands and they are beautiful!! We have done a lot of diving this week and have so many great shots!! Here are just a few and more will be added soon:)
Clear water. Coral rock bottom. Soooo pretty!!!

Lil rock corals stickin out everywhere!
