Good question, Sue. I just know that divers get all excited when you mention "night diving". I would think it's the same, but in the dark. Jim? Kevin? Maybe Kevin will answer when he gets home from playing dive instructor.

Tinksdad, thanks for the recommendation of Blue XT Divers in Cozumel. I'm going to get with them about a night dive. :rolleyes:
Fine,

Just "rub it in" why don't you!!! :badpc:




Good outfit, they will treat you/us right........

It's DARK!!




No, actually the darkness brings out the night creatures, squid, lobsters, photoplanton are very cool. On a full moon, it is a Magical time!!! Quite surreal, in a good way. It's fun to look across the bottom with a sweep motion of your light and see a dozen lobster eyes light up!

We were night diving off Catalina Island last summer and the boat has lights on it, of course. The lights attracted the flying fish which were flying right into the side of the boat. This, of coarse, attracted the seals, which LOVE flying fish dazed by a good smacking on the head. They are swimming around scarfing up the fish, we are diving below them getting buzzed by seals.

Fun stuff!!

We were doing a night dive in Bimimi and floated in the current with an octopus for 15 minutes and watched it go from sponge to sponge. It would wrap itself around the sponge for a few seconds getting food and than move to the next one. During the whole time the octopus kept changing color, pink, blue, yellow.

It was really great!
 

Just popping in.............

So are they really going to shut this thread down at 25,000? If so I think that a new one should be started - I know I don't post often, but I enjoying popping in and reading! Withdrawals are a very hard think to go through! Especially now that I can put faces with most of the names here!

Gary, good luck hope your tests came back ok - Just remember the Power of Positive Thinking!

Leslie and Joe - WOW a Marathon! I am impressed - Great Job! And it was so good to see you on the last day over at MGM! You guys know everyone!

We are toying with another DLC cruise - this time with family. We were looking at the 2006 Christmas Cruise - but who wants to pack on Christmas night!

This Christmas we are going to use another cruise line - we are looking into the Raddison Line - what beautiful ships and what a sale 2 for 1 cruises - which I believe someone on these boards mentioned about doing.

Well, time to get ready for work!

Stay healthy everyone!

I'm going to have to get scuba certified! WOW, that is really cool!

If Susan and do it, I can!

Okay, sorry, so I am either tech challenged or Ofoto won't let me post a link.
If you would like to see the pictures just let me know and I will have it emailed to you. They really aren't that good. I am disaapointed with my quality and quantity!

Hi Tina:

Sorry to hear about your recent surgery. Keep up the positive thoughts and I'll keep you in my prayers. We managed to get away from the ship without your address. Would you send me a PM. Also, I'd love to have you e-mail us your pictures. Did you ask Ken to send your ours? I won't comment on the quality but the quantity is staggering. I'm still on day one in my scrapbook - it might take forever to finish the entire trip. What are you doing to keep yourself occupied while recuperating except reading the boards? Say hi to DD and DH.
 
Thanks Jim and Kevin. You guys make it sound really interesting. I'll just live vicariously through your pictures and descriptions though!

Sue, be glad you didn't work at the pantry today. What a nasty weather day it is here!

More scout upheaval here. DS decided to transfer to a different boy scout troop. He's really been unwilling to go to scouts the last few months, and it's registration time so we pushed the issue. He said if he can't switch troops, he wants to quit, so we're letting him switch. There's nothing really wrong with his current troop, but he's never really found a buddy. Most of the boys his age came into the troop with an established buddy, and although they're nice to him, and include him, there's no one who's his special friend. The troop he wants to go to was having real problems last year when we had to move up from Cub Scouts, so I wasn't willing to let him go there even though it was his first choice. Since then, the entire leadership has changed hands, and most of the older boys who were causing the problems have either graduated, or left the troop. So we're going to try it and see.

I think it's going to be a quiet day here at work, so maybe I can explore that photo link thing. I still haven't got the home internet fixed, so that's on the list today too.
If I can get it fixed, I might join chat tonight.

Have a great day everyone! Lisa

We booked this while onboard. We cancelled it on the drive home. That was the straw that broke the camels back....packing on Christmas day. YUCK! Who thought of that?????

We'd love to do it again and go to St. Lucia again, but the thought of packing up on Christmas day, having Christmas dinner on your last night. We opted against it. It was bad enough having to debark on my birthday, I don't think I want to have the most hectic day of the cruise be Christmas.

Ohmin - I thought about the packing on xmas day vs staying home. I guess since I don't have to help little ones get it together the '06 cruise won :cool1:
