What else has happened in my world? – WEll the BIG news is I have moved countries, Helen got a job at the British International School in Phuket,so we have moved to Phuket.  Arrived here just over a week ago after a month in Australia.

I am not sure what I will be doing yet but probably helping Helen out with the swimming and teaching some pilates. My main job is looking after Tegan while Helen is working.

We have spent the week settling in and haven’t done a great deal, except goto the pool nearly everyday :-) Tegan has had amazing results with a new freind whom evidently wouldn’t put his head under the water lst week, now he’s very comfortable with his head under.  :-)

Hopefully I can get to this and Tegan’s blog a bit more and update them more often.
Will help when our shipment arrives in a couple of weeks, so I can get my computer :-)

Melting Ice Caps

May 20th, 2008

Met up with Andrew yesterday for Brunch.  And found out what he is upto.  He is on probably his biggest mission ever and I am 100% behind himon this one.  Most people will probably say we are mad and it will never happen, but the facts are overwhelming.  What am I talking about?

“Based on the latest satellite data cited in a December 2007 article, National Aeronautics and Space Administration(NASA) climate scientist Dr.H.J Zwally predicts that nearly ALL the ICE COULD BE GONE from the Arctic Ocean by the END of SUMMER 2012″
that is 4 years away, so unless the whole world radically changes what we are doing than we can say good bye to not just the summer ICE CAP but to …. the world as we know it.

Look at http://www.suprememastertv.com/sos/ to see more.  At first reading it sounds like scare mongering but the facts speak for themselves. We have lost 50% of Arctic Ice in the past 58 years, but the loss in accelerating with the 2007 levels are 23% lower than the previous low in 2005.

Whale Watching

July 16th, 2007

Monday 9th July

Went down to Augusta (an hour and a half drive) to go whale watching.
Even thou living in Bunbury have had the whales on my doorstep I have never seen them.
They are presently on their Northern Migration to the warmer waters of the north to have their babies in the warmer feeding grounds. 

Our trip was awesome, so many whales, even the tour guides sounded impressed with the amount of whales we saw and the amount of activity there was.  I think we saw it all :-) , Tails flapping, Fins waving, Noses up out of the water, and breaching.  And at times coming so close to the boat, We must have seen at least 50 whales in the 2hours we were out.

After the first 45min, when the activity was amazing, didn’t know where to look, we went out further into the bay, where the waters got rougher(even thou the boat driver said it was flat), where Helen started to feeling very queasy.  After a while started to be quite sea sick.
