Dive School




Well...we are officially scuba dive certified after 4 days of studying our trusty PADI book and making 5 dives around the island. The last two days were the best with 2 dives each day for 30-50 minutes each. We saw sharks, barracuda, trigger fish, jelly fish, sea snakes and lots of other cool fish. Visibility wasn't fabulous but it was still incredible. Our isolated little resort made for the perfect place to relax after long days in the water. You would not believe the road getting to/from this place...we attempted to rent a scooter but quickly found that it was impossible with two people. So we walked. However, we were happy to avoid the broken arms, stitches, burns and other wounds that our fellow travelers got while riding around on scooters. It's dangerous business.


Today, we have to get back on a ferry (wish us luck) for the main land and then take an overnight train to Bangkok. I'm sure it will be another adventure in Thailand travel! Then off to Vietnam for a week before we head home.

We recently had family photos taken in the Columbia Gorge by a wonderful couple who travel around the world with their two kids taking pictures. I just love how they turned out!

Manzanita and more...

We figure it's our first of many trips to the ER with two very busy little girls.  (On a side note, Cora thought riding in the ambulance was really fun!) I came down with a ridiculous case of Poison Oak that was awful for about three weeks and continues to haunt me.  It seems I'm quite allergic!  Thankfully, no one else got it.  Dave drove himself to the ER in the middle of the night for an emergency appendicectomy that ended up being (and still is) more complicated than normal because of the scar tissue left in his stomach from the car accident.  That was a few weeks ago and his...
