Palau - above and below the ocean

We went to Palau last month for a one week trip, and certainly got our money's worth. Two full days of flying (Carlsbad to Los Angeles to Honolulu to Guam to Koror - then back), five days of diving, and two days of kayaking and snorkeling. We went primarily for Jellyfish Lake - which was as advertised - but the diving, beaches, and general scenery was WAY better than expected, and a huge bonus. I realize it's not the easiest place to get to (unless you live in SE Asia), but I highly recommend it.

Here's our trip report (with dozens of videos and hundreds of photos), and some of the photos to whet your appetite.

Justin- Just like your last travelogue, this one is awesome. Thanks for posting! -Peter

The weight of lies will bring you down / And follow you to every town / Cause nothin happens here

That doesn't happen there / So when you run make sure you run / To something and not away from

Cause lies don't need an aero plane / To chase you anywhere

Excellent Justin thanks, and your right, I got so into looking @ all the pics that I forgot I was looking for "something" :)

Justin, those are incredible pictures. I have always wanted to dive the wrecks and reefs of Palau even before I became a certified diver. Makes my recent dive with mantas, turtles and leopard sharks at Julian Rocks in Australia look tame.
