 Diving O'l Blue with Tammi Good morning from the Caribbean. Got busy again last night with other things and had no time for the internet. Yesterday at around 10:30 I did a fun sea lion dive out in the open ocean. I think Curacao is one of the only places that does this and let me tell you it’s very cool. They open a gate and a sea lion swims out and follows a trainer underwater to waiting divers way out on the reef. If you put your arms straight out with a flat hand the sea lion will then come over to you, pull up along side and let you pet him or her, it’s super fun. After the initial introduction you then swim with them to two different sand patches where we stopped and sat in the sand. We again put our arms out and one by the sea lion came to visit everyone and from what I noticed if your a good and gentle petter he came back to you more often. After the dive it was back to work and after work we raced downtown to get Aimee signed up for her triathlon on Sunday. At around 6:30 I took the dogs out to the desert along with as much water as I could carry and filled up my new bird water stations which seems to be a big hit!!
Remember yesterday I sent a photo of Scott shooting some video, well this is his wife Tammi hovering above a beautiful collection of gorgonians at O’l Blue in Bonaire. This dive site had so many beautiful little coral scenes like this one and I tried to shoot them all! Moments before we jumped in when we were still on shore a big pod of wild dolphins swam by, if only we could have been underwater to see that! When we first came to Curacao we bought all our dive gear from their dive shop in Rapid City and they still supply me with my hand held diving lights and clips for my fins, stop on in and check out all the goodies for yourself.
I need to get to work, talk to you tonight, Barry
