What if they touch the reefs there! They shouldn't even touch the sandbar!<BR/>I wrote a letter to someone who lives nearby but got no answer yet.<BR/>W.Peceli and Wendy's Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01165668047817341837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9942067.post-1149136714086188812006-06-01T04:38:00.000+00:002006-06-01T04:38:00.000+00:00My former colleague who was at Sipadan last year r...My former colleague who was at Sipadan last year really enjoyed the diving there.
