Its a tropical zoo in Denmark, located near a city called Randers. You get to see all kinds of tropical animals from the parts of the world. Asia, Africa and South America. Its truly a fascinating place, i could spend a lot of time there for sure. worth a visit in my opinion :) You can find their homepage here.

Suunto D6

I have for some time, ever since the plan about going to Egypt to dive, been wondering which dive computer i would buy, if any at all. The a day, when i was talking to my friend Jesper, he mentioned the Suunto Mosquito dive watch, as a nice watch that could be used for free diving as well as SCUBA. I check it out, and called a few resellers in Denmark for a price. It was not a bad alternative, since i had considered buying a Uwatec Aladin PRIME. So now suddenly with the Mosquito, i could get a dive computer with a integrated watch :D
After a little consideration, i looked around on suunto.com, and i stumbled across the Suunto D6. Actually, i started looking at the D9 since i read about that wonderful piece of equipment from AIDA (Free Divers association) and that they used it as a official instrument of measuring depths when breaking world records etc. So i knew i was looking at some high quality equipment. And meanwhile its still usable on a daily basis as a regular watch! After being told the price tag on the D9, and knowing the difference between the D9 & the D6, i decided to go for the D6. So I’m now the happy owner of a Suunto D6 watch :D

YAY !
As a sequel to my “im gonna be a dad!” post, my girlfriend and I went to a scanning, where they with ultra sound check if the child appears to be fine. And everything looked fine. It had a nice nose bone, which 60% of the children born with down syndrome does not have at this stage. And the neck fold ( i don’t know the proper English word for it) looked fine as well, further reducing the risk of having a child with down syndrome.
We had a few pictures printed of the small one, and i took some photos of the scans with my digital camera, here they are for the world to see, the tiny, newcomer of super free divers!
