Good morning Torsten and all the others that will check in.
Torsten, Are you at work? Did you go to our country for diving? In the Oosterschelde? It is really good to do. If you are going to take pics in the Baltic sea... can you post some at CC??? I'm very curious about it.

I will serve some coffee or tea.
I have a day off and I am counting down for our visit to Bonaire... 38 days to go!!!

Hi Diana, yes I'm at work....6 hours to go :-)
I would like to swap your 38 days with my 24 hours :-) :-) :-) So come to Hamburg! If you like feel free and join us and have some dives in the Baltic Sea.

Morning everyone. Sorry Diana, but we only have 12 days to go. Thanks for the tea.

Good morning everybody. Excellent coffee over here.
We have only 2 days to go! Can't wait...

And yes, I agree, the Oosterschelde is one of the best places for diving, we have seen large groups of sepia's last month guarding their eggs, made some very nice pictures. Lost of wild life over there.
However, visibility and temperatures are low.

Ahhh, Julia... always someone with more luck But then again... we will eventually arrive on Bon as well!!
Martine, enjoy your lunch!
Torsten, Maybe we will try some day to dive there. We are planning to go to Germany for some ice dives, if the winter over here is not helping out. (I don't want to think about that, now in summer, though!!!)

Hi Bert, we had the same too, about the sepia's. I posted some pics at CC...

Hello Diana,

I'm going to join Torsten tomorrow in the Baltic Sea. This is cold enough. But ice dives? brrrr
We will serve you some mulled wine :-)

There is not really much to see in the Baltic Sea.
Some plaices, Seenadeln (Syngnathinae) (sorry, don't know it in English), sea weed and a lot of very small fishes. But I have had a few satisfied dives in the Baltic Sea.

Now, an (alibi) image :-)
No one is around 7

Hi Ilona.. A dive is always fun, at least that's what I think
Off to a appointment. Be back later, when the sun is up in Bon as well!!

The post has just been delivered and the transfers for the t shirts from the web cams are here! I have just sorted out our t shirts with the BT flag so I think I will give the little transfers a go on them. I can feel shopping trip for plain t shirts coming on!

Good morning, Safe dives and travels to all of you.

I am diving on a wooden ship wreck tonight. Not much left of it, but it is still nice

Hi Tom.. looks like a nice wreck! Have fun this evening with the dive! How is "Cat"??

 

Top of pagePrevious messageNext messageBottom of page Link to this message  By Tom Cousino (Experienced BonaireTalker - Post #736) on Friday, July 30, 2004 - 7:39 am:     Edit PostPrint Post

Diana, The Horse Ferry is a nice dive.

On the 18th of August I hope to get Cecil and a few others to these sites:

http://www.lcmm.org/site/mri/mri_underwater_preserve/ar_noyes.html

for our first dive, then on to:

http://www.lcmm.org/site/mri/mri_underwater_preserve/oj_walker.html

for the second.

"Cat" is wonderful, thanks for asking. Only problem with him is, this morning he started using a recliner as a picking post. Pam and I were just discussing his behavior over coffee and are open to any suggestions (except declawing). We have items such as post, scratch pads etc. which he has used. Do not know why he decided my chair was open territory. Never had this problem with other cats.

Can not wait until Monday. Hopefully "Cat" will be called "Wilbur" when he returns from the vets that afternoon.

Off to work, will check in later.

Tom, try a fine plant mister filled with water: a light spray a few times will put him off or if that is a bit too drastic for you, try polishing with a citrus scented polish, lemon is good.
Cat wants to mark a place as his but identified with you. If you keep him, he may need a scratcher of his own, the others may smell too much of other cats.

LOL, Jos! I wonder if the type of fish is a butterfly fish, but actualy I don't know if it is the name of a species... Hence the question mark.

It is an interesting question you posed... do butterfly's fish???
Are you at work or at home??
