haha...yeah my 15 seconds of fame  You should have come. Haven't got many photos yet. I think JF is still waiting for permission from the Ephorate as to what we can show and say. Was a great experience though. The guys we dived with had some amazing stories and photos as they have been doing that stuff for 30+ years on mostly ancient wrecks there in Greece. Also met a really interesting guy from deep submergence laboratory at WHOI (Woods Hole Institute). Those guys are like Nasa but underwater. Some amazing equipment and some amazing photos he showed us of very deep wrecks - 800m+. Real interesting bloke to chat to as well. John deserves all the credit for organising this and the guys from the Greek Underwater Ephorate were amazing to dive with. I guess JF will update images and video and info on the website here http://krg.org.au/mentor/
