... had to ascend making safety stops along the way. We must have spent 15 minutes just hanging on the mooring line for deco which got a little boring but it was another great dive on a great wreck. Our third and final dive of the day was the "Christ of the Abyss" site, a 25 foot dive and good ending to a day of diving.

Back on shore we head back to check on Paul Z. who's ...

... which was at the start of the drive, to which i said that wasn't in the deal i was just a witness. She said she wasn't aloud on the premises but it was here property, she was very reassuring and wasn't pressurising or anything. Now i was regretting it even more, she said her husband had beaten her so if he saw me with her emptying the postbox what might he do to me! I also thought what if this is all a set up, i get out with my bag in the car and she pulls off and leaves me ...

... I don't think the guy had ever cut a whiteman's hair in his life! Before returning back to the hotel, we visited the southernmost point of Key West and consequently the continent - bit of an anticlimax, but at least we can say we've been!

In the evening we walked up Duval Street, (the main party street) to Mallory Square on the eastern side of the island to witness the sunset celebration there. It really was beautiful. Hundreds of ...

04/10/2009 - Last night Jim went down to the pier to meet Fred for some late night fishing. I popped down about 11pm and Jim was all on his own desperate to catch something. Fred had already given up hope and gone out for pizza instead. It was really spooky on the pier at night, pitch black with the only light coming from the moon. The tide was in and the water was deep and choppy. After half an hour or so, Jim was just about to give up when he suddenly got a bite. He soon realised ...

... hacks one of our mackerel in half and casts it out for shark. Ted nails a 100lb Bull shark - takes over an hour. He caught him in the ass - rectally pierced - only Ted can do. A huge spinner shark (notorious jumpers) shoots completely out of the water near the boat - fully vertical (wish I coulda snapped a picture) - as Ted fights the Bull. Once the poor thing was exhausted winging our boat around and beat by the pain in his ass (shark ...

... I find them in different places of the shop, asking them if they wanna buy something, apparently yes. Cool, I wait. One girl disappeared in the shop. Probably trying some stuff. That’s about one hour we are in the shop. I start asking those guys if they are ready to go….no answer…I was not rude….i just mind to visit the city and not shops I can find at home. Half an hour later nobody moved, I ask again: are you ...

Well, here we go, the nightmare begins !!! After an 11 hour flight I had to change airplanes in Atlanta to get to Key West. I turned on my phone and got a message from my employer in England telling me that the ship I'm supposed to join the next is not actually stopping in Key West !! Great !!! Well, I flew to Key West anyways, got there at midnight with a big cold that I had caught on the plane. Next morning another phone call: I have to fly to Miami then to San Juan, Puerto Rico to ...

... before settling in for the night. Q slept in the tent, and I was in the car (as my coughing had kept him awake the night before) but the midges still drove me mad as I couldn't get them out of the car - so it wasn't a very good nights sleep, and as the DEET stuff only works for about 6-7 hours we were bitten to death again in the morning. We spent Saturday chilling out around the pool and the beach, luckily while you were swimming the midges didn't bother you - but they came out again in ...

... sandwiches that we packed for the 3 1/2 hour ride. The guy sitting next to us, however, really got got things going when he returned from the snack bar with a smelly greasy pork sandwhich. Obviously, it was a miserable ride for the sea-sick but we had fun. We spent the day walking around Key West and had drinks at Jimmy Buffet´s Margaritaville.
