So excited for you!! Hi Sarah,
I'm so excited for you!! How fortunate that you got yourself over to South Africa to experience the World Cup.
I wish I was there to watch the Spain vs. Germany game with ya. I would have been cheering for Germany though. They didn't play agressive enough to win, c'est la vie!!
I know you are having a great time and wish you lots of good times!
Take care,
Bridget
Hi Rory,
I used a digital camera with an underwater housing for those shots. It was a rental from the dive company but if you want good underwater shots you need a good camera, housing and filters to get the colour back (you start losing red almost right away under water).
Jealous about Belize, it's on my list.

Really awesome photos. I just came back from Belize and tried to take some photos of the Reef, but used a little disposable camera. Did you take a underwater photography class by any chance or a special camera? Thanks!
Rory
no live snakes were used in this story absolutely love that your students are teaching you! and through their creative snakes and ladders game...have to admit the entire time i was waiting for the part about the real snake coming out...no good, so really it was a win win situation. Learning experience and no live snakes.
miss you loads BN.
SEE YOU SOON! it all sounds incredible. big kisses xoxoxo Linds
Sarah, Your poem fills me with sadness. I am at once startled and awed by the beauty you are able to bring to such a tragedy. Bravo. To write that must not have been easy but you do him great honour with those words.
Love love.
Your travel buddy
wowie zowie Amazing photos. I am very happy for you. (and really jealous) You have some conversation starters for years to come. "So I was swimming next to this whale shark last week...."
new depths Great photos -- glad to see what you're up to ... or down to... Think of you often, and relieved to hear your next dive is hopefullly into a good book.
Love, Sue
Hi Sarah, Happy to read that you love Thailand. The mall is HUGE! My son took diving lessons and my daughter is talking about taking the course as well. My guess is that you will thoroughly enjoy the experience. Take care.
I want to be there! I'm so jealous.
I wonder if you ended up on the same bed as I did on that lovely boat ride! So much fun hey!. I love ko tao...enjoy your stay!

sounds like fun So we both have settled into tropical paradises. I am in the Andaman Islands right now and it is quite fantastic. I hope Thailand is all you had hoped.
don't leave me here alone! What will I do without knowing Sarah and Carlie are leaving me alone in this country? Totally fall apart that's what I'll do! Have a good journey to Thailand. I just might have to stop by Vancouver before Canadian thanksgiving.
All my love... Sarah,
It has been absolutely wonderful to be able to experience India through your blog. You might not yet be able to see all of the ways that you have grown and changed but it shines through in your pictures and in your writings. I see it in your face, I hear it in the words that you write. I don't know what the changes are but they shine through loud and clear.
XOXO,
Marnie
P.S. Looking forward to seeing you when you get back.
On my way Hi Sarah, Quagmire reminds me of the creepy guy from Family Guy. So fitting in so many ways. I'm in an internet cafe at Mumbai International paying (gasp!) rs.80 per hour! Hope the separation anxiety hasn't set in yet. Xo
Magnifique Ahhh the writer in you is starting to push out like a baby crowning. Soon you will go pop and never look back at the womb that was the domain of your previous days before you discovered the art of enlightenment through words.
We are two recently ex-students (graduated) who have set out on an adventure. The wonders of London, India and Thailand await us......and anything else that we find along the way!
(p.s. Sarah wrote this introduction and Carlie takes no responsibility as to the spelling or grammer.)... full info
