Qantas is the only airline that flies out of Alice Springs, so prices aren't cheap. But the one thing that I've really been looking forward to, was getting to Cairns to finish my Scuba Diving certific... Read Full Entry

I'm an amateur photographer who has devoted the past year to become a full time professional photographer. For the past 8 years, I've worked in the DVD business as a Programmer and Producer. Hoping to escape the crazy, stressful life of the Hollywood industry, I decided I needed a change. So I quit my job, tied up my loose ends, and was off on some eye opening and memorable 2007 vacations. While traveling around, I continue to take as many photos as possible in hopes that they will someday fill my portfolio and supply me with future jobs.

Scuba Duby Doo
CONGRATULATIONS!!! We all knew you were certifiable but congratulations is still in order. :) Yet another amazing adventure in your long line of adventures. I'm sure you'll never forget this one and it's probably a far cry from any zoooos dvds you were doing last year. Love the photos and videos and I give you credit for diving in the world famous Great Barrier Reef. I'm so glad you didn't see any great white sharks and you managed to stay a safe distance from the stingray. Whew. And night diving? Oh mercy. You're a brave soul. I like your new interest in underwater photography. I'm gonna look up a photographer you'd be interested in seeing. Keep having fun, be safe and keep up the great blog!

Actually
Actually, went to the Doctor twice, and he said they weren't. It was some allergic reaction, cause it lasted for 2 weeks, but finally going away now. Thanks though, I thought of that as well.
