To sail on a dream on a crystal clear ocean,
to ride on the crest of a wild raging storm
To work in the service of life and living,
in search of the answers of questions unknown
To be part of the movement and part of the growing,
part of beginning to understand,

Aye Calypso the places you've been to,
the things that you've shown us,
the stories you tell
Aye Calypso, I sing to your spirit,
the men who have served you so long and so well

Hi dee ay-ee ooo doo-dle oh
oo do do do do do doo-dle ay yee
doo-dle ay ee

Yeah, I know... I was singing this song when I left, but no matter how many hours I spend underwater, watching the Dance of Life as two octopi go through their mating ritual, or two Giant Cuttlefish flash their colors to each other... even the lowly little Cleaner Wrasse that pick the parasites from the gills of larger fish... It's simply unbelievable.... even when you see it again and again... It's simply unbelievable. I wish I could sing this song... It's easy to play, the chords are simple, but it's the Hi dee ay-ee ooo doo-dle oh oo do do do do do doo-dle ay yee that completely eludes me!

Good morning everyone! We had a good shoot under the Guamanian waters, and spent even more time just enjoying ourselves because it went so quickly. I wish I could share those photos with you but by contract for the advertising shoots they belong to the client. I'm happy to be home again, so I can sit back, drink as much good tea (right now it's Taylors of Harrogate's "English Breakfast" tea,) and dream about eating massive quatities of bacon and bagels and donuts, etc., but I've dropped 15lbs on this diet so I must remain diligent for another month or two. I vowed to lose 30lbs total before we return to the paragliding school in October, and I'm halfway there! So just one egg and one toasted English muffin for breakfast, then I'm out the door to walk the streets so more.

I think this kid started out at 6months. In reality he's now 8...

I spent my walking time yesterday shooting scenes around the Gion District in Kytoto. My goal was really to just 'walk' (that's my exercise) and the camera is just a prop to get me to do it, so really, these are just 'snapshots,' not really good photos. Below are some of the things I saw...

Welcome to the forum, Chipper. You might be our first member to drink electronics. I for one would be interested to know how long you steep them for?

Now... me for more tea!
