Samsoe
Been back at work for two days, and i already hate it =/ I was just getting used to my holiday :)
My girlfriend and me went to Samsoe from 28th july to 4th august. We had a nice holiday, not the best weather in the world. You could be sarcastic and call it a typical danish summer i guess :(
We had a few visitors, and were actually quite social on our vacation :) My girlfriends parents visited for a day, and we saw the northern part of the island. And then after that we had a few days to ourselves :)
Wednesday evening a pair of our friends+ daughter came to visit us. The girls, all three of them, could be social, and Jesper and I went for some underwater spear-gun hunting. We did not have the luckiest dives on the planet, and the weather was pretty much against us, but we had a nice time diving and talking etc.
Here below are some random pictures from the trip, eventually i will upload them all to the gallery :)
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!
