Cactus Top

Good evening from Curacao.  Aimee and I are worn out!  Her and Emily left at 3:30 in the morning to go do the whale watch and I didn’t get home last night from diving till after midnight!  And the sad part is we have to go back and do it all over again tonight!  We didn’t see any spawning last night but we did hear reports that the Sea Aquarium reef had a little so maybe we will see something tonight?  Last night my friend Brigitte went along and carried another camera and our friend Marco joined with all his video gear but we all just ended up hanging out at around 20 feet counting the minutes which slowly turned into hours.  Between the whale and this spawning everyone at work today was so tired!  I’m sitting here pouring the coffee down, after this goes out I still have to get my camera ready, find all my dive gear, re-fill the water containers and eat in less than an hour!
 
I didn’t have time to dig for a photo from last nights dive so your getting a kind of plain Jane cactus photo, let’s just call this one a filler!  Oh yeah, remember the bird nest in the stuffed fish’s mouth at work?  She has three babies in their now all poking their heads out, will get another photo to send!
 
Have to go, bye now, Barry
