Recently we had the pleasure of a visit from Hugh Ross from Guam.  He came bearing gifts of red wine and cheese (so was an immediate hit with your intrepid writer), and left us with some amazing photographs:

Octopus

Ornate Ghost Pipefish

Flatworm

Pygmy Seahorse

Thresher Shark
Generous to a fault, on his last night, Hugh treated the crew, staff and their families to a night in Oscar’s Restaurant and a feast of lechon baboy – a whole spit roasted pig, the traditional celebration dish of the Philippines!

Lechon Baboy

Full Moon on Malapascua
If you have enjoyed these photos there are plenty more of his Malapascua trip and also many more from some of the spectacular locations Hugh has visited including Fiji, Wakatobi, Lembeh and Tonga for whales.
We hope to see Hugh back again at Christmas!
