Have You Tried Unplugging It?
Saturday, November 29, 2025 Last night we had a wonderful dinner at the Peruvian French place. Ceviche and Pisco Sours just like in Peru. Today, we started our long journey home. We got up around 6:30 or so, and neither one of us slept great. There were hooligans outside revving cars and making a ruckusContinue…

I Hope You Didn’t Break Your Butt
Friday, November 28, 2025 Last night, the party bus continued at a nearby restaurant for happy hour. Most divers went back to their hotel briefly, showered, made themselves presentable, and found themselves at Ginger for happy hour. So did we. We pre-gamed as we got ready, since we ended up buying a second bottle ofContinue…

You Can Either Have Bruised Knees or a Bruised Ego
Thanksgiving Day, Thursday November 27, 2025 Today we took the party bus to West Punt. I didn’t know it was a party bus, but a party bus it became. We woke at 6:45, and slowly got up, made coffee, and had our remaining HARD boiled eggs. I normally make something akin to medium-hardish steamed eggsContinue…

Rum &…Coca-Cola?
Wednesday, November 26, 2025 Today we had no plans, other than a loose suggestion that we should hit Daaibooi (Die-boy) Beach. The weather forecast was not promising, but US weather apps outside of the US are very hit or miss. Mostly miss. So we took the weather forecast with a grain of salt and aContinue…

Tuesday, November 25, 2025 Today was another dive day. We woke up about 6:45, and got ready to be at the dive shop at 8:30. We arrived a few minutes early, and Ditte, today’s Divemaster, helped us get our gear into our boxes and ready for the bus. We had 10 divers today, and theyContinue…

We’ll Get a Sledgehammer!
Monday, November 24, 2025 There are days, such as this one, where we had a good time, but nothing truly exciting happened, and I wonder what I’m going to fill the page with. Have no fear. Something always comes up! We had reservations for today with Mermaid Boat Tours, to the island of Klein Curacao. Continue…

I Don’t Know Bar
Saturday, November 23, 2025 Last night we had dinner at a restaurant across the street from our hotel. It was supposed to be a relaxed, casual atmosphere. Before they seated us, they asked us if we had a reservation. Now listen, I can hardly be bothered to make a reservation when I’m at home, andContinue…

May I Make a Suggestion?
Saturday, November 22, 2025 Last night we had a lovely dinner at a Mexican inspired taco restaurant just a few doors down from our hotel. Nathan had a spicy marg, and I had a passion fruit marg, and we were both in heaven. Nathan might have said some disparaging words about margaritas in Colorado, butContinue…

Male in the Bathroom!
Friday November 21, 2025 Such was the story of my week. At some point during July, we decided to renovate our only bathroom. It was a big decision, a big hit to the pocketbook, and an even bigger inconvenience. So, the demolition of our only bathroom commenced last week, and I’ve been ‘suffering’ through workdays,Continue…
