A great trip for many reasons. Sorry to spring the wedding on everyone at the last minute but we didn't want a big fuss. A simple sunset ceremony on the beach and the pair of us was the goal. That's why there was only two hours notice.

I have the photos of the ceremony available if anyone wants copies. I have them available on-line and if you want to see them, just send me a PM and I will send you the link. They are quite large so I cannot email more than one at a time. I just started a new job Monday and am changing apartments so time is a little tight. I will respond when I can to any inquiries.

Cheers and thanks again for everything.

I posted a report on Scuba Toys:
http://forum.scubato...g-2012-a-39381/

In a word - Great Trip. And a HUGE "Thank You" to Kamala, the Trip Coordinators, Reef Divers and Brac Reef Resort for making it a very memorable vacation.


WOW! That was a great trip report! The only improvement would have been to call us SingleDivers.com as that is our official name! Sort of blond proof don't ya think??? LOL! ;)

When I tried to post it as SingleDivers.com the system kept trying to change it to a link. This was the best compromise I could come up with in the airport.
And on the eighth day, God said "OK, Murphy, you take over."

WOW!! You did all that at the airport? Cool! And I'll accept the compromise! Kamala

p.s. I use SingleDiverscom when I'm in the same situation! For next time that is... ;)

Not sure if this is the right place to put this, so if it's not please let me know.

A couple of people inquired if I would be selling my video that I put together. The answer is no... I will not... as I only shot video for a few days. I am happy to announce though that I have done a very quick put together and edit of the footage and posted it to Youtube for you to look at. If you want a copy of the video and have a way for me to get you the file, I'm happy to send it to you free of charge. (i.e. you have and FTP server or something that I can post to and everyone can pull it from there)

Here's the link, I hope you enjoy it. I really enjoyed diving with everyone, and I apologize that this video is only from the perspective of one boat, so half of you are not in the video.



Finally, if any of you are interested in the video setup that I had, I purchased it with the intent of only having it for this trip, sort of "trying it out", so its a JVC FM1 Picsio HD Camera and 8mp stills, Ikelite housing, trays, handles, two Pro-V8 lights (500 lumens each), the hot swappable wide angle lens and red filter. If you are interested in shooting video, this is a great setup for a beginner. The lights are 250 a piece brand new, the system is a year old, I bought it two weeks ago (not including the red filter) and I am selling it for $450 including everything. Email me if you are interested.

Sure no problem Kamala... It doesn't work on iPhone and such devices... I can't figure out why and have very little experience with youtube. I saw a place in advance settings that it states it won't work with those devices, but it didn't give me an option to make it work either...
