Hole in the wall in Jupiter Florida. :-)
the mud puddle at work :(
St. Andrews jetties, Panama City Beach. Me and AL did the traverse from the Kiddie Pool to the beach. Then I went kitesurfing and almost drowned myself.
That kitesurfing looks pretty dangerous. They do it all the time next to the causeway here. One of these days the wind is going to pick one of them up and drop them in front of a '78 cadillac driven by someone who bought it new when they retired to Florida...Quote:

Nemo 33 in Brussels, Belgium...deepest swimming pool in the world at 112' (including simulated cave)
I read about that about a month ago. How was it? Was it just a big deep hole?Quote:

I ok'd the line and enjoyed the sensation of swimming in bluish milk. It was 43 feet deep max, 19 average, 78 minutes, 2200 penetration (of nearly a mile of currently known penetration and more to go?). Flat and horizontal, jagged and vertical, up and down, bone passage, camel back, runway one, the narrows and left jag drop to runway two..., zig-zag, right triangle rock, and left rise...then on into the M&M conduit (Marbry & Mike, who found it), until thirds. I placed two cookies (Skip written on them) on the mainline where side passages appeared in this most excellent viz. First one to the left, second one to the right. can now go back and do the jumps even if viz sucks (as it usually does; 10-15 feet).
Crawford led, Steve was middle man, and I was last, in the play position...swimming around way off the line as their lights showed me the way ahead.
14 southern cavefish (1/2 inch to 3-inch), over 50 crafish (1-inch to 8-inches), but only one isopod/remepede. bright white and crawling just out of reach of the cavefish - i think my presence interrupted a prey-predator relationship.

Last week I dove Truk Lagoon with my meg, ridiculously long bottom times and awesome wrecks. The week before we were in Guam diving there too....
Dive safe,

I'm not going to try an top that but I did dive the Grand Traverse TODAY. I was a guide for someone that signed up at the CDS miniworkshop.Quote:

Both of us brought an AL40 each for safety bottles.
Nemo 33 is an enclosed multi-level, spring fed swimming pool including a cylinder in one corner that drops from about 33' to 112'. It also had a room that created an overhead environment. This URL has some nice pictures to give you a perspective of the site: http://www.anvari.org/cols/Deepest_P...the_World.html.Quote:
