It’s my 33rd Birthday. And diving the Great Barrier Reef is the birthday present my wife surprised
me with. It was amazing. Now I know why the Great Barrier
Reef is called the best diving spot in the world. Unfortunately my
underwater camera can’t reproduce close enough the beautiful colors and the
magic of this underwater world.
The Poseidon diving team led us to three beautiful diving
spots at Agincourt Ribbon Reef – The Point, Harry’s and...

First dives on the Great Barrier Reef
Today I obtained my open water diving certificate, on the Great Barrier Reef, no less.
The last couple of days, the wind was too strong to get out to the Reef, so we had to adjust our schedule. Shopped around a bit on Friday and treated myself to a nice fat Seiko diver's watch. Half price and with a good exchange rate, i couldn't resist. Waterproof...
Whitsunday Islands
We left Tinsel Town and took the Greyhound bus down to Airlie Beach, a popular base to visit the Whitsunday Islands and more diving sites on the GBR. Nice landscapes along the way, mango plantations and kangoroos, a few lucky ones hopping around, but more laying along road, roadkill.
Airlie Beach itself is not much more than a strip of bars and travel agencies with lots of backpackers around. We expected...

Sorry for the late update; I spent the last weeks in the outback of western australia where internet access is as common as fish on a bicycle. Now that I'm heading back to civilization, I'll be posting more stories and new pictures. For the last trip on the eastcoast, I signed up for a 3 day diving cruise on the "bigCat" from one of the more serious diving operators - for some pure...
Scotty's 40th Birthday Camping WeekendHeaded off along the beach for an awesome drive. Kids enjoyed themselves and no one was injured (well, not too much anyway).Pictures of the coloured sands just don' t do it justice, nor does the slope of the sand hill they boogie boarded down. Crazy really, especially seeing the crash that Lex and Carissa had cruising down the hill (Lex's first afternoon with her cast off), crazy kids!Excellent...
