HP Winners Summit Day 2

24 Feb Activity Day 1

The morning was breakfast and presentations from HP management. The guest speaker was Francois Pienaar, captain of the world cup winning Springboks team in 1995, and Matt Damon in Invictus. Hate that movie because the All Blacks lost, though I think it is the one loss that contributed to nation building in South Africa. He is a humorous and inspiring speaker.

The activity at noon was a submarine ride in the coral reefs North of Nassau island.

On the way to the reefs.

One person submarines. As there weren't enough submarines, we were split into 2 groups. One of the ladies in the second group threatened to go to the bathroom underwater. I was glad to be in the first group.

Wang Theng getting into one. These things are like riding sea horses. Not very manouverable and one speed only, slow. However the colourful tropical fishes are spectacular, and whilst I remember, you can wear glasses. A streamlined swimsuit helps with the speed, I was slowest cause I was wearing bloomers. Good fun and highly recommended.

Sat on the bow of the boat to dry off on the way back.


Dinner was at the Blue Lagoon Island which is a 45 min boat ride from Paradise Island. WT looking very tired on the way there.

Sat with a lovely Malaysian couple from Kuala Lumpur. The girls spent a lot of time queuing for food. Most of the beer were mine, not Jason's. Pat is in the middle.

Shoved the servers away for a shot of WT pigging out. Day 2 done!
