Hello from Los Angeles USA Brad. You are a fearless and tireless warrior! Glad to hear about the adventure in progress, it sounds and looks amazing. Keep on, my friend!
:) Looks like you are right at home in Indo. The pics look great. The garden eels are cool, I saw some of those in Hawaii. Hurray for solo contemplation, it looks like a beautiful place to do it. Keep it up!
hay Hi Brad! I love your description of Kuta Beach (the bustling part)! I picture a cross between an Indiana Jones movie, and a Jason Bourne movie. Did you happen to see James Bond being chased on a motorbike? Do the 'friendly shop owners' speak english? Does the beach resemble a California beach at all? Or no? I love it when fire dancers show up while I'm eating dinner. WOW.. kite-surfing sounds tremendously hard. I picture how nervous I am going down a steep mountain with a snowboard... not wanting to catch an edge... HOLY CRAP! Those Garden Eels are awesome looking! Nice pictures! How is that Olympus working out? You're not actually using the flash, are you?
Hey Brad catching up on your blog...Wow the dive stories were so awesome. It makes me want to go!!! But 140 sounds a bit frightening to me...30 is more my style haha. Can't wait to watch some videos!!! Are you back in LA now?
interested in your expedition Hi i am going to be traveling from Honduras to guat and then maybe to Belize. I am first interested in were exactly the caves you dove were, you had said Placencia, but ive had issues finding any info on that. Also, how did you travel from Guat to Belize? from which town? and can you avoid going to cancun? any info would be appreciated.

Blue Hole? Wait, that picture "Blue Hole from Above" - what exactly am I looking at? It looks like a picture taken from space, but I'm pretty sure that's one adventure you guys HAVEN'T done on this trip... It's a beautiful picture even though I have no clue what it is. I'm so glad you got to see a whale shark! I remember you talking about really wanting to time it to see them, so glad that worked out. Say hi to mom from your blog friends and have fun being treated to some parent travel time after all the roughing it you guys have been doing. Cheers!
Behind... Ok, I'm a bit behind on the blogs but I love this one! And I love Jenni to the D's comment about her friend getting an infection up her butthole - I would never have thought of that but yeah, that makes sense so make sure you boys are clenching when you jump! heehee. and Brad, speaking of butts, how's yours doing? are you pooping? we don't want any more Death Star experiences when you come back this time...awesome blog - the caves def sounded creepy but very stimulating and fun, keep it coming!
My answer would be no way Jose Holy cow you guys are nutso - just looking at that picture of you 2 on the bridge freaks me out!!! I met a girl once who said she jumped in a fresh water lake in from up way up high and she got an infection up her butt-hole. Hope you guys didn't get what she got. Anyway, just now checking out the blog, Brad, and it sure makes me wish I were traveling!! Keep the blogs and photos coming :) And yes, we need to hang out when you're in NY in August!!!
this blog is amazing being co-star of the adventure, i didnt find it necessary to actually read the blogs, but damn, these are seriously amazing. kudos brad! cant wait for the video!
We can't stop here, this is BAT COUNTRY! What a brilliant adventure! the description of those water caves brought back great memories of the colorado sauna cave! We have to get you a waterproof enclosure for your zoom. =D you guys are nuts for jumping off a perfectly good bridge... And yet once again, you bring a serving of double rock goodness to your river swing release! ooooommBASSS!
Smiling Ah, Brad. It's impossible to read these blog entries of yours without SMILING. I know how my brother drives golf carts so I can only imagine there were at LEAST a couple near collisions that didn't make the narrative. I'm glad you guys are finding such wonderfully empty spots - certainly the only way to do that is by NOT planning, which I guess is something you guys are absolute Pros at! Keep having fun and we'll keep enjoying it vicariously through you.
amazing to think that I pay well over a $1000 a month to live 3 blocks from an overcrowded, polluted beach...and you got to experience a private paradise for $10 a night.....thats awesome
