Yesterday's diving

The weather was pretty damn poo yesterday but still decided go diving otherwise I wont get another chance till my next day off which isn't until next week. Ended up being pretty cool, although I was on the freezing side, rather than the cool side. In Thailand the water temperature was around 29 degrees, here its 30 - 31 and you don't usually need a wetsuit, but wish I had one with me yesterday. Anyway, below are some of the cool things I saw. For you divers out there - check out the vis. It's like that EVERY day!!!!


Pretty obvious who this little fella is. The turtles here are tiny!! This one's shell was probably only about 2ft wide. They're mainly hawksbill, but they occassionally get Green turtles. There's a lot of preservation going on which is great. Some of the girls walk the beach and look for nests and then keep an eye on the babies when they hatch and make a run for the water as there are loads of poachers on the island, Brac, nearby.

This is a Bearded Fireworm apparently! Just looks like a hairy caterpillar. Cool 'cos I've never seen one before.









And finally , a Spotted Spiny Lobster (upside down). This one was pretty small, but there are normal lobsters that are huge!! Paul reckons one nearly took off his arm - nothing changes eh!!

our new home!!


If you look close enough you can see the look of horror on my face at the size of the plane we had to get on to to fly to Little Cayman from Grand Cayman. I was starving and actually thought we'd get a little meal like you do from Bangkok to Samui. What a joke. The flight was probably one of the best I've had though as you don't fly as high as you do in a big plane and the weather was gorgeous so had some great views as you'll see from the next picture.


The little island in the middle of the ocean is a kayak ride from the resort and called Owen Island. The staff sometimes go over and have little parties there, but we haven't been yet.
















You can obviously take a pretty good guess at what this photo is - our new little abode. The house behind belongs to Anna who we work with. From this point, as you are looking at the house, when you turn around you see..............















Just to to the right of the hammocks, about 200 yards away is where we work, Reef Divers, Little Cayman Beach Resort.














That's all the photos for now. I'll put some new ones on when we have some. xxx

our engagement!!

At last some piccies of our engagement. They are pretty self explanatory, but the one of us together, Paul got a random stranger to take. If you don't already know the story, its in the park where we had our first kiss at the ages of 9 and 11. My ring is just as gorgeous as it looks!!!
