Last Sunday Diana, Ruud, Rob and I planned another dive. We were hoping for good weather, but the weather men were right, it was raining a lot...

Unfortunately Ruud couldn't dive, so Diana had to get in the water with Rob and me... Poor Diana, she had 2 photographers with her...


I've place some underwater pictures on my site again, but the pictures from afterwards are not there. I'll just post a few here:

Martin, great pictures! Too bad Ruud didn't get to dive, but it looks like you all had a good time! Did you have your "gadget" with you? OH, and "nice shirt" ;-)

We really had a great time. And of course the weather was not that great. Everytime we did meet, there was rain and/or wind.
I've got some pictures too, but yesterday I fell asleep on the couch (ahum). So, this evening I will put them on this thread as well.

(We normally have a dishwasher....)

Time for some more pictures.
Getting dressed. I finally did meet Angela as well. Martin and Angela are a great couple and very nice to be around with.
Martin did made me laugh at the start of the meeting by starting about the ground turkey greetings from Cynde

A small exercise before going into the water (for those who want to know... first is Martin and I'm the one behind him )

Getting ready to dive. In the middle is Rob. I had to dive with them together, sandwiched in between the two photographers (both having different kind of digital gadgets). But it was fun!

Ah.... Bon - How else could it have been but fabulous! (Even with ear problems! It took me 9 minutes to decend past 25 feet the first couple of days, but it was worth the wait!)

It was nice to meet Mary very briefly, but I couldn't get away from the group for Gibi's on Tuesday.... (those darn groupies and early evening dives)! I was the only BT person in the group..... :-(
