Speaking exercise

I plan to go to Phillipine to get my second scuba diving license in an island which called PG island. If I’m lucky enough I may have a chance to see dolphins there. So far I still can’t find any company so I’ll probably go there on my own again. But it will take much more time on my way there. I have to take a plane and bus and a ship to get to pg island.
