I clicked on the school supplies video link, and got a Sign In page.....but I don't get that when clicking on the previous two posted links earlier in this thread. ?????? I'm not giving YouTube any personal info!! I'll start getting all kinds of junk mail & marketing spyware!

It is working now (select high def for best viewing)


Instead of hunting up each individual link, simply go to YouTube.com and in the Search box type "down2biz" (without the quote marks) and a list of all my dive related videos will come up!

grrrrrr. Tammy thank you for the report. Oh to be back in Bonaire.

thank you for the report

[TexasDiver]

is there a bounty on thier fins in Bonaire?? Can you catch and kill??

Divers are asked to point out lionfish to the divemaster who makes note of the location and reports to a special task force of authorized "lionfish hunters."

For an example of an UNauthorized Lionfish Hunter check out this video:

The SD Bonaire 2010 photo gallery is now open! I figured I'd better post mine before all the guys with the BIG cameras started posting....

But, every trip I learn a little more. This trip, a special thank you to one friend who shared a lot of photo wisdom with me. I haven't forgotten my next assignment!

Finally back in Durham 22 hours later than scheduled. Big mistake being at airport early as my scuba bag was last luggage in Newark and I missed my connection because flight was 80 minutes late. Lesson-- avoid flying on time change or bad weather days and also be among the last to give bags to ticket agents.

However, I did get to walk the friendly streets of NY City last night. But don't any of my fellow travelers get any ideas in their heads from that (secret meaning).

Actually had great Thai meal (roast duck) at Royal Siam in Chelsea!

I've put together a 10 minute video of the Costume / Skit Contest. Neal did two skits. Because I have already posted "Lionfish Hunter" only "Cork Saver" is in this version.

Tammy,the colors were spectacular.The Trumpet fish seemed to be huge or extra long from what I'm used to seeing in the Carribean.Good vis and close ups.Not that I'm a photo critic,of any means.I think you had some great shots and at least a few for a Frame or two!!

Great job with the photos. Thanks for sharing. I loved the two file clams. They look like the eyes of the reef.
