Randers Regnskov
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.
A few pictures from the place.
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
13 weeks ahead, and the child looks fine!
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!
Third outdoor freedive!
After going on the first outdoor free dive, almost two weeks ago, i went on another free dive with a buddy just last week.
However, last night i was on my first Underwater Hunt with a good friend. We drove to sea, and took a 2 hour swim where we hunted for fish, and i made my first kill with a spear gun :) After that we took a 3 hour break, grabbed a pizza, to restock on energy, before we took a night dive. On the night dive we shoot several fish and it was a thrilling experience, guaranteed not to be the last :D
