Five Missing Japanese Divers Found Alive, Police Say -- 2nd Update

Five Japanese divers that were assumed dead were found today off of the Indonesian island, Bali. The divers set out as a group of seven, two instructors and five tourists. They had been diving during stormy day, and currents and strong winds swept them away. For four days the women spent lost without food or water. Nothing is known of the whereabouts of the other two divers. The Japanese diving industry doesn't expect this incident to change their success in foreign interest too much, but this hasn't been the first time such things have occurred. At one diving site a Japanese guide and Danish tourists died, prompting more awareness of location and weather during dives.
