Today I had organised a bit of a stuff up. Had long ago organised to do a dive in Corsica, but didn't realise until a day or two ago, soon confirming, that the location of the dive school I had booked with was a little out of Ajaccio. Only a little, but completely inaccessible by public transport in the early morning as I required. So had to wake up early this morning to call every other dive school in Ajaccio to try and find a dive to join. Which turned into lots of walking around the city looking for places and trying to call people, and resulted in a lovely dive school calling a few others for me.... But all to no avail! Not a single availability that day :( quite shattered at that stage, for one of the only reasons I chose to go to Corsica is because it supposedly hosts the best diving anywhere near my travel path. As a compromise I went snorkelling. And to be honest it was pretty shit snorkelling! We are quite lucky here in Aus!! Anyway, had some time to lie on the beach and at least had some water time. This is the rib we went out on to our snorkelling hole miles away in one of those background hills.
Returning to Ajaccio that night to find a Napoleon-esc parade in the Main Street. I'm not much of one for parades.... Home after a really tiring day with some takeaway :)


shit happens.
ReplyDeletesorry for your distress.
you can't say you did not try.
the fault is all on the islands-lack of communication- helping tourists.
