It has truly been a wild, adventurous, and family-relative bonding first 2 days of 2023 trip ever and it will be etched in my mind as one of the greatest and most memorable trips in my whole entire life. It has been awhile since I saw and swam the seas since 2017, rode a boat since 2015, and also saw a first times like interacting with sea creatures like manta ray, swam alongside those creatures, and swam through a prestine waters of the famous river.

I rate this trip a 9.6-10. This will be remembered in my mind for many years as much as my long past trips several years ago.

So today a year ago, I posted this. It was quite an absolutely remarkable trip. All I can do right now is reminisce.

This is why recording my trips will never be forgotten because all the moments I got were filmed. I will never forget that time I finally managed to swim into deeper waters in Enchanted River since I’ve never tried it my whole life, always at depths no higher than 2 meters.
