Dive Odyssey (Part Two)

December 29, 2012

Coral Sea memories,continued.  Organized by topic. Breathing.   Always one of those things we divers have to take seriously. It has to be admitted, right off, that my air consumption sort of sucks.  I use up a tank of air quicker than I should— not crucially, horribly, but quickly enough so that it bothers me. […]

Dive Odyssey (Part One)

December 28, 2012

I was looking through the photos of my dive trip and thought this picture was one of my better efforts  It shows how colorful and diverse underwater life can be, and it was taken at a shallow enough depth that the color  flash.  Most of my photos tend to be on the blue and green […]

December 24, 2012

Plus of course there’s all the maintenance I needed to do around the house when I was traveling, and now need to do now that I’m […]

Bloated (But Pleasing)

December 19, 2012

I saw The Hobbit today in all its 48fps glory, which shows considerable restraint considering the hype I endured all those weeks Down Under.  An example of which I offer you here, the safety video I sat through on each of my Air New Zealand flights.  It was funny the first time. I was prepared to […]

Jetl;ag. Jetlap. Jetlag.

December 15, 2012

I’m back in New Mexico after over six weeks abroad.  The security people in New Zealand tried to have me thrown off the plane, but eventually it got sorted.  I think it’s down to my astonishing physical resemblance to Abu Nidal. I don’t know if anyone else has noticed this, but while I was away […]

The Sailor Home From the Sea

December 13, 2012

I’m off the dive boat, and back in the rather discouraging town of Cairns.  During the last week I’ve racked up 25 dives in the Coral Sea and on the Great Barrier Reef, both of which were full of Teh Awesome. I haven’t got my land legs back, so when I walk around, the earth […]
