A couple dive videos from that day:

 

This video shows a couple of turtles...  The island of Bunaken is well known for lots of turtles but I was shocked at how many we saw over the 3 days.

 

This is an interesting video - it shows the caretaker of the reef - the parrotfish, in action.  In addition to being really colorful, they're interesting because they bite off a chunk of coral reef and then poop out sand...

 

Dinner that night was not buffet, but plated for some reason.

Onion bread - like at the other hotel, the bread had a cake-like texture - this one was stuffed with sliced onion.  Really tasty with a ton of the sambal dabu-dabu

Pork dumplings

 

I neglected to take a photo of the main course - I got the chicken massaman curry which didn't really taste like massaman but it was tasty.
