What kind of trip would it be...

...if I actually didn't go diving??? The only non-diving trips I have had in the past 3 years were to Sweden (both of those summers, I went diving just before leaving for Europe, though) and that one week I visited Alex in Istanbul. So as you would expect, here are a few of my diving pictures:

Porcelaine crab in anemone.

Visibility was very poor on this day, and that's why the water appears green. I have seen many baracudas on my dives, even large schools of them but this was the first time I actually swam IN the school. It was awesome!

Don't let the pink and pretty colors fool you: the stone fish is hard to detect among the coral and is very venemous. Divers and swimmers, beware!
