Notes:

The stern of the Rhone may be my favourite dive all trip. Jason and I descended without difficulty in clear water, and shortly afterwards were joined by Kat, who was working as ship's cook. She showed us a couple of the sights, including the captain's spoon, and a fun swim-through just beside the great propellers. Afterwards, she removed regulator and mask for an entertaining photo through an old porthole, and I had Jason take a similar goofy shot of me. Kat also generously offered to take a picture of Jason and I together, our only underwater shot with both of us. Jason and I encountered no difficulties, and ascended comfortably.
