:) Thanks for offering to send Chillies, but Joachim's mom has already put together a "seeds package" so it should be on it's way.
They say Goat curry is good... have not tried it yet.. ;)
Hi Sandra Hi Sandra!
Thx for your comment! The hurricane has now passed, so except for a bit of wind, rain and a power cut for a few hrs it is all good. We even had karaoke tonight! Not as busy as usual as the med. students are between semesters, but still good to catch up with people! :) Got some pictures on flickr from this years carnival, check it out on: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ninapedersen/sets Will pass on your greetings when we meet at the vortex tomorrow at 8am... :)
good luck !!! hey guys, I worked for Saba Divers till Ma this year and we expected a tropical storm last year same time but there was finally nothing...please say hello to Marie and Bob and Bettina and I keep you all in mind!!!

US Airport Security Hey guys, it sounds really great that island and my holidays on another island (Mallorca) seem to have been so boring in comparison (although they were not). I have to go back to the office tomorrow and am rather afraid about it - I am not quite sure whether I can stay until 2010 in this job as planned or whether my appetite for adventure wins over the "i have to earn money to feed myself"-feeling... Your experience with your bags reminded me of my stay in Miami in May - I got assigned a special treatment where you pass a special line and they do a VERY thorough search before you can go on board. My luggage also got searched (thank god the used underwear was on top). And I have also fond memories of PRESIDENTE beer - it just tastes great I think. Have been to Flo & katharinas wedding 3 weeks ago, seen all the old guyes (linde, plüg, olli...) - only meike was on holiday in Greece... Big kisses to the two of you, Lars
Good to see you found a great place to stay in ! As for me, I just passed by London for a weird job interview ("In your opinion, how many golf balls are there in France ?") and some sightseeing. I'm not so enthusiastic about the position, but some days you have to eat. Anyways, I'm already thinking about saving up and go for a RTW trip in a year or two...
There is one... We have a beach, but only on low tide... :) I have seen it from the sea and it looks..hmmm... pretty small I guess.. Never the less, it is a beach! Will find a pic and post here :)
Thanks for all your comments! Sorry we have been slacking replying to all of them, I will try to do a catch up now:
KOKKEN TOR:
Comment: Turtle Wax - Are the big turtle the kind they make Turtle Wax from?
Response: hmmmm.... not sure about this one Jarle.. maybe, or maybe not?
HILDE:
Comment: Grattis!!Så utrolig kult!! Når skal vi sees igjen da?? Snart håper jeg..
Response: Haaper vi motes snart ja. Naa skal vi jo til et sted som er forholdsvis lett aa reise til fra Norge og med bra dykking! Snar finner vi ogsaa ut av om vi kanskje har plass til gjester ogsaa! :)
DIANA:
Comment: Greece? Come to Greece, come to Greece! You could definitely settle here and I am sure you would love it :) Diana.
Response: We like Greece too, it did not happen this time, but who knows where this adventure will bring us!?
FREDDY:
Comment: Canada Let me know when you are coming to Canada...I will out some fish in the pool!!!
Response: Sorry we did not make it over to your pool, but guess the good thing is that the fish will be bigger when we come for a visit next time!
MARIA:
Comment: Bara lite avundsjuk... Hej! Det ser ut som ni har det helt fantastiskt! Unnar er verkligen det, men skulle gärna gjort lite sånt själv också. Har sagt upp mig på Kraft utan nytt jobb, ska gå hos karriärcoach och så får jag ser vad jag ska bli när jag blir stor. Men en lång resa ska jag i alla fall klara av innan jag börjar på nåt annat ställe. Kanske ni kan rekommendera nåt!? Ha det jätteskönt! Kram, Maria
Response: Lang reise hores suverent ut! Det er vanskelig aa anbefale noen spesielle steder siden det er saa mange!! Det beste er nok om du tenker litt paa hva du har lyst aa oppleve, fjell, sjo, strender, vandretur, klatring, dykking, fjerne osten eller sibiria? Det er iallefall et godt utgangspunkt. Vi gleder oss til aa hore mer om planene dine!
SHEENA:
Comment: Wow! What quick movers! Just can't keep up with u guys! One minute you're climbing the highest mountain in Asia, next you're back in London. Anyway, best of luck with the next leg of your adventure. What part of the world is Saba? Sounds different! U sure are getting around. Looking forward to hearing the next instalment! From a wet and windy Ireland all the best Sheena.
Response: Saba is in the Caribbean, keep an eye out for new blog entries and you should learn loads about it. Hope you will have some good weather coming your way soon, guess you are flooding like England?
ANONYMOUS:

karaoke You look like true karaoke stars! Enjoy the caribbean. Is it mainly Europeans there or are you going to make lots of money out of fat american tourists-hope you have perfected those knots for tying weight belts together! Take care, Oli
Karaoke Great to see that you discover Karaoke!! It is the best of fun in Asia - just hilarious, especially if you imagine me singing... Once I had people putting their hands on their ears as a reaction :) Caribbean sounds great, so you will earn lots of money from overweight American tourists... Take care, Lars

We are a Norwegian/Canadian 30-something couple that have decided to do some longer term travelling before settling down. With no kids or mortgage, we recognised it wouldn't get much more convenient as we got on in years. Whatever happens, we are looking forward to a great learning experience.
After making a farewell tour to Norway in November 2006, we took off for Mauritius in December 2006 and became PADI Divemasters. We then moved on to Phuket, Thailand in March 2007 and completed our PADI Open Water Scuba Instructor course in April 2007. We worked for 2 months on Koh Phi Phi and div... full info

That's probably Nepenthes villosa.
