Ok, so I'm either super crazy or incredibly cool. But we'll get to that.

Last week I went scuba diving with the sharks at AQWA, the Aquarium of Western Australia. They ranged in size from babies and port charles something or another up to 10 and 11 foot bull sharks. It was wonderful. I was very nervous about it before I put on my wetsuit, but I got over it real fast and loved it. The scariest part wasn't the sharks, it was the turtles. There were two, both of them were named Eddie. Yeah. They would follow me around and try to bite my fins. I accidently kicked one in them face on my exit. I found four shark teeth on the bottom that I'm bringing home with me.

So this may be my last entry. The wireless at my apartment has died and I can't upload anymore photos from my laptop. I might try to write some more text before I leave Perth, but for the most part, expect updates after July 23rd, when I'm home. I only have until Friday here in Perth. Today is the 10th, I leave the 14th. Then off to Cairns. I'll talk to everyone soon

PS sorry some of the photos won't pop up, fix it at home

Shadow Shark!!
Everyone know when they attack they come out of the darkness and WHAM you're chum... and I don't mean my buddy

Pretty Seahorses
Pretty seahorses are like Pringles to sharks. Once you pop you just can't stop... just can't stop chewing on swimmers

More Sharks!!
do do.. do do.. dodododododo DO DA DO

OMG someones in the tank with the sharks!
I bet that diver is going to get eaten hardcore

Ooo, the diver found a 12 foot manta ray
I bet theres a shark behind it

And a turtle!
I bet the diver was way more scared of the turtle than the sharks. I bet the turtle kept trying to chew on the diver's fins. I bet the diver accidently kicked the turtle in the face

Who is that pretty pretty scuba diver?
omg, it's me. I scuba dived with 9 and 12 foot sharks. Seven big ones, several smaller ones. Yep, I did it

Kelly and my sharks
She's just in a tunnel. Oh yeah, Kelly, you're way cool....

Jenny and Turtle!
Jenny snorkled with the sharks, which is pretty cool. The turtle's name was eddie

Jenny's rear and a SHARK
That's nothing. Try having a shark come brush over your shoulder while you're trying not to get bitten by a seaturtle

Me and Katie at Scitech
I'm sitting on a plastic snake. Katie got an echidna

Giant Spider
It's real. It tried to eat me. It's definitely not a robot. It's real.

Shelle! What have I told you about those spiders?!?! If you get eaten and don't return to me in one piece, I'll have to kill you. :-P Miss you! Thanks for the phone call - read the xanga. :-)
