And then if you were shipwrecked? And if you could only listen to one CD? And have one book? And eat just one food for the rest of your life? And bring only one other item?

Maybe the more difficult  question would be, because you could only ask ONE, who would you ask to go along?

Oooh, this is becoming one of those desert island questions, huh? Well, I'd have to second Walter's response.

And then if you were shipwrecked? And if you could only listen to one CD? And have one book? And eat just one food for the rest of your life? And bring only one other item?

:D

Well if I were shipwrecked the book I would bring would have to be the boyscout manual just to survive! LOL how to start a fire without matches, learn to live off the land, sounds like coconuts would be the food and beverage of choice, palm leaves for a roof of that hut I'll need to build for shelter, and since I probably wouldn't have access to electricity, hope that my buddy has a good voice for music for that one CD! lol

ohh too much to think about.. lol :dazzler:

What a delightful question ~ In a heart beat I'd go to Point Lobos in Carmel, CA. I love long surface swims and I'd slowly kick my way out past the outer Cannery Point pinnacles watching the sea lions and otters frolic and eye me with curiosity. I'd explore the kelp forests until I couldn't stand it anymore, playing in the surge I love. I'd end each day with a long walk on Asilomar Beach in Pacific Grove followed by a night dive at either Monastary Beach, Lover's Point or the Coast Guard Breakwater.

Only a weekend!
Geez that makes it tough my first thought was Bikini Atoll I would love to dive the Nuclear Fleet especially the Saratoga, glide through the aircraft hangar deck viewing the ready to go planes, but just a weekend, I think not. So I think I would chose a trip to the Florida Middle Grounds. Dive buddy hmmmmm let see…there are many that come to mind here…I need to think about this a bit…do I only get to take one buddy?

Tough question! I've only been able to narrow it down to two.

1: Cook Islands. Need I say more? I've wanted to go there as long as I can remember. I think I'd have a long line of volunteers for this one ... Ana? Jennifer? Kamala? Anyone?

2: Diving under the Antarctic ice http://scilib.ucsd.e...lery/index.html I know it's not your run of the mill weekend, but don't the photos look amazing? I'd take anyone with the adventurous spirit to want to do that with me!

Ok coppermaus, so when we going to PNG...seems we have let the cat out of the bag, so to speak! :)

Nice to know there's someone else who shares that admittedly obscure interest!
