This blog is just short of 10 years old. We have now move to South Africa. Why South Africa? Simple, great wine, great food, great golf and even more amazing diving! I will for once continue to blog from time to time about home. After all, this is just my fourth continent after having grow up in Europe, lived in Asia for twenty years, and even spent a full year living the life of Buenos Aires. Come to visit....there is so much to do here! ... full info

Lost and found divers..
We heard about the divers that were lost and I agree with you I wouldn't have been happy at all drifting on the surface for four hours with all those shark in the ocean! I would have been happier under water, but that would have been a problem with no air!! Sounds like you had some great dives and there are plenty of other places up the East coast to dive - have you tried any other places in SA?

Enjoyed this blog a lot, your thoughts about oh, what if, have gone through my mind also in PNG when we lost the boat...indeed life has been amazing - looking forward to the next blog and that dive you promised me!

J'attendais ton post avec impatience après avoir lu cet article: http://www.rtl.be/info/monde/international/920921/neuf-plongeurs-dont-un-belge-secourus-en-afrique-du-sud Contente de voir que tu n'étais pas dans le lot ! Les plongées ont l'air très chouettes, juste un peu dommage pour la visibilité. Mais j'ajoute quand même la destination à ma liste de prochains voyages :-)
