Loved the Anggun and the crew.  The trip was twelve days without a repeat
of dive sites except when requested.  Diving was not particularly
difficult.  Service was excellent, food was good to excellent (and
plentiful), weather was great. Tsunami was absolutely not a factor in any
way.  The after shock of late March also was a non-issue.

Some cold currents for several minutes during some dives.  Take at least a
3 mil suit.  A one night stay in Phuket after the trip would have been a
good idea rather than waiting around to fly.

Word is that the Anggun is moving to Indonesia during the monsoon season. 
We would be return customers.
