Roy ...the sea eagle











 During our stay at the Perhentian islands we meet up with Roy. He is a very tame 3 month old sea eagle. We believe he was hurt when he was young and now spends his days on the beach



































                               Finally I meet a bird who admires me for my silly hat

Perhentian Islands








Beautiful clear water of Perhentian Islands

























Water Taxis to get around and explore.  Looks like this one is floating in the air the water so clear.





















Of course you can always make your own transport












A great place to snorkel and chase fish


























Went on a fishing trip and had a great squid dinner that night.













Some amazing sunsets





and some sunsets that were a little strange.





             What a fantastic holiday










Coral and fish




We brought a compact underwater camera before we left for the Perhentians.  All the shots here were taken while snorkeling. So amazing. Never realised the fun you could have annoying fish with a camera. I also did a couple of scuba dives but couldn't take the camera as it is only rated to 15M.







Not the greatest photo as did not want to get to close. He was oblivious to me anyway, just busy munching away on some seaweed. Above him were about 20 people with lifejackets all following his every move. Truly a rockstar of the sea.
