Jumping off the Tarzan swing...

it's a long way down... Tarzan swing ! 

It feels like being in a tumbler-dryer... 

It's not as easy as it looks... 

Vasili on one of the toughest crossings... 

it's just missing the crocks and the snakes, to have an "Indiana Jones" feel 

the first easy steps in the trees... 

hello down there... 

it's a ways up ! 

All geared-up and ready to climb ! 

GoApe, in Bracknell... too much security ? 

Prep for Sudan/Uganda trip...

Yves looked pretty confident for his first ever Vaccine ! (sorry about the pictures quality, these are taken with my Cell Phone)

Got my YellowFever Vaccine update today, in preparation for a trip to Sudan/Uganda next week ! (the nurse very kind, it didn't hurt... much.)

Papua New Guinea Scuba Expedition with Mike Ball

2 Years ago, we did the expedition with Mike Ball on the Great Barrier Reef, starting from Lizard island. Today, the last bits of planning are in for the 10-day liveaboard Dive Expedition with Mike Ball again. This time on the eastern costs of Papua New Guinea. Can't wait to get wet ! See more details of the trip at: http://www.mikeball.com/png/Liveaboard_scuba_diving_milne_bay.htm

Back in 2003 Oceanic started advertizing a concept Scuba Mask with Heads-up display, well it's out now... and I wish I could get my hands on one for our PNG dive expedition this Christmas !
