Kind of a mixed bag this trip, some very good and a lot of mediocre shots. Such is life, in way of excuses (I have a few), lots of whale snot, some operator senior moments and one flood (one dive no shots).

Any way as always they will arrive as I finish editing and in the order of the trip.

Here's the children waiting for us to leave to start the party.

Next for take off at Hartsfield.

Thanks for the report and pictures Cecil. I am suffering from a near-fatal case of PBD as I have been home for only about four weeks now. I know you're going through the same.

Nice pictures the frigate was the Van Galen.

We are still still on Bon time, hopefully this weekend we can get back to UK time. Getting into Amsterdam at 3:30 am on wednesday is still very vivid.

Cecil - As a recipient of my first dive camera and strobe for my 50th birthday, I have a lot to look up to while viewing your pictures. Hopefully I can get half as good as you are. Thanks for posting.

BTW your dog invited me to a party - thanks for the cold one!
