Elephant Wash
After a hard day of work on the river I got a call from my family. "So… What have you been doing today?" I could hear my mom typing as she spoke. "Washed elephants, chased hornbills." She wasn't surprised at all. When I told her about a week ago, I was sitting only a few hundred meters away from an erupting volcano, she didn't even flinch. It must have been hard for her to accept the lifestyle we so suddenly and irreversibly fell into, that we will never be normal, but at least now she accepts my day to day adventures as simply my regular life. She then gave the phone to my fourteen year old sister who informed me of Michal Jackson's untimely death. "You really didn't know! What planet are you on?!" Apparently not the same one she is on…

ребятки, а это не вы ездили с каким то гидом путешественником (биологом?) на приключенческий (?) тур? Рассматриваю как потенциальное занятие - Ну мы в роли гида понятно :)
если не сложно, киньте мэил - где нашли, сколько стоило, всё что покажется полезным :) Пасиба.

	I like my SD870 IS (with the right housing) but I use an external flash with it - otherwise top left is overblown and bottom right is all dark. Even if you don't get an external flash (which is difficult to dive and snorkel with) get a diffuser. Oh, and we might be in Tzfat in September... :) (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)
