Diving Pictures from Grand Turk – Nov 2008

Published April 29, 2010

We were lucky enough to make two trips to Grand Turk in 2008. Unfortunately, the second one was only one month after Hurricane Ike, which pretty much devastated the island. We were some of the first tourists back to the island, and the first ones to go out diving with Oasis Divers. The really big plus was that for the entire week, my son and I had Mackie all to ourselves!

We stayed at the Osprey Beach Hotel, which had definitely felt the effects of the hurricane, but did everything they could to make it a pleasant experience. When (not if) I go back again, I’ll be staying at Osprey, and diving with Oasis.

Pictures are available on Flickr here, and slideshow is below.

Cabo Pulmo 2009 Dive Pictures

Published April 24, 2010

After the SharePoint 2009 Conference last October, a few of our crew took a detour to a very tiny town at the end of the Baja called Cabo Pulmo. It was my third trip there (more pictures to come..) and obviously I highly recommend it. This time we stayed at Reinhard”s Rentals and completely loved it. I’ve stayed there previously. We dove with the Cabo Pulmo Beach Resort and they were excellent once again. Every time I’ve returned they’ve had a different staff, and each time they were great. I think that speaks to an excellent dive operation, not unlike my friends at Abyss Dive Shop in Playa Del Carmen. You can see the pictures on Flickr here or view the slideshow below.

Cuba Diving

Published April 19, 2010

This will be the first of several dive photo postings as I get my photos organized. The family was in Cayo Guillermo Cuba in this past March, and as usual, I managed to sneak off diving most every morning. The diving itself was better than I expected, but the operation left quite a bit to be desired (which I did expect…).  Don’t get me wrong, the staff themselves were good, but there’s only so much you can do with that equipment and those business rules.

Pictures are available here on Flickr, or you can view below.

That’s A-Moray

Published April 16, 2010

I shot this video while diving with the Abyss Dive Shop in Playa Del Carmen, Mexico in 2007. This little fellow was out swimming around and thought that my camera housing might be a threat.
