 dolphin-and-her-baby Good evening guys, this is going to be short as we are headed to a party/fund raising event at Saint Joris tonight. And no the dogs are not going especially with all that gross chicken still lining the shores! This event tonight is being put on by the kite surfers. Their goal is to raise some money for the local kids to help get them interested in other activities, like kite surfing and mountain biking just to name a few. Everyone is welcome, it starts around 6:00 just bring something for the grill and whatever you want to drink, see you there.
This is Tela and her baby Pasku again, “Pasku in the background” swimming over to give me and my camera a closer inspection. Tela could care less about the camera, she’s a Superstar but little Pasku as you can see is keeping his distance.
It was a beautiful day here today and from the looks of it the water was spectacular! It’s funny, we had the Curacao dive festival here all week and the wind was non-stop and the waves were big creating terrible diving here. Now that it’s over things seem to be going back to normal again. I talked to a bunch of divers this week who were a bit disappointed in the diving conditions but hey there’s nothing you can do about the wind?? And it’s true Curacao among other islands got hammered from Omar, everything in the shallows got wiped out which is really bad news for the endangered corals and not so pretty for the incoming divers. We did have a diving celebrity of sorts stop by the Aquarium a few days ago, his name is Wayne Hasson and he’s the President of all the Aggressor Fleets World wide! What’s an Aggressor Fleet you ask? These are the live aboard boats that are parked in the most beautiful dive spots around the globe and cater just to the diver! Check it out, www.aggresssor.com As you can guess this is what I have wanted to do for such a long time, go to some of these other exotic destinations and do nothing but dive and take photos, so maybe if I am lucky I will meet Wayne again one of these days. Also he has another program called Oceans for Youth, check this one out as well at www.oceansforyouth.org what a great organization!
Talk to you all tomorrow, Barry
