I've booked my trip to Truk. I will get there Jan 13 leave Jan 30 staying at Blue Lagoon my wife is not a Diver she'll be relaxing in the Sun, while I take a look at the Wrecks. Let me know if some of you on the Forum will be there at the same time.
 
Best of luck. I did Truk a few years back and it was arguably the most memorable week of my life.

I do think your wife might get very bored though. Not much in the way of beaches (or pools) at Blue Lagoon. Make sure that she has a few books downloaded on her Kindle!

Here is a link to my old trip report:

Truk is brutal if you're not diving. Have fun
 
You would be best to leave the wife at home, saving a lot of money and your marriage. Nothing at all to do in Chuuk unless you are a diver. No pool, only one small beach at Blue Lagoon. Alternatively, send her on a holiday somewhere else at the same time.
 
She can stay with us in Abu Dhabi, and I can join you!

I'm a wee bit envious; have a great holiday!

My wife is tough she went to Mozambique and spent 10 days in a jungle camp killing Bugs and reading books while I was out Hunting. She's going to do some Fishing while we're there. Speaking of Bugs, how are they in Truk?

You're a lucky man!

I don't remember there being many bugs (and I went out jogging a few times). I was there around the same time of year you'll be going.
 
Hey, my wife and I will be in Truuk at the same time! :). Well, we've only got a few (3) days as it's an adjunct to our trip to Palau...I had to convince her it was worthwhile (she's not a wreck diver)...We're there from the 15th - 19th...

Where are you staying - Truuk stop or Blue Lagoon?
 
The Blue Lagoon, How about you?
