Bamboozied with the Brits
Not wanting to brave the chapa experience for a second consecutive day we stayed at our hostel....a cool beachside backpacker called Bamboozi.
In the AM we enjoyed the somewhat chilly Indian Ocean waters for a cool little dive spot called "The Office" -- I thought more time would have elapsed before we gave in and returned to the corporate world ;-).
The dive site itself was very promising but the vis was a bit disappointing. We did manage to see a Honeycomb Eel (HUGE!) and a weird fish that looked like Greedo from Star Wars (Janet insists it was a monkey faced eel - of course!)

Post-dive we hooked up with four wonderful but CRAZY Brits and of course got properly "Trollied" with them in celebration of Jo´s 25th bday:
Jim, Jen, Francis (barely conscious), Liz and b-day girl Jo

Hey J and J!
Tis one of your crazy Brits here! Jo! I was searching for the Bamboozi webpage and then up you guys popped! Brilliant! Hope that all is still going well - sounds like you are having a blast!
Fond memories of a great birthday and holiday!
We managed to make it back to Jozi, somehow, after all the usual.. Abandoned my bro in Bamboozi! The gals made it to London, I am still here! My brother rocked up a few days ago, alive just (!) and is now back in the UK also!
Anyways, take it easy and keep well!
Love etc
