Where in the World Were We???? - AandA - 10-26-2006

Hi ;D,
Alyson and I just got back from a great vacation 8).  We went somewhere warm and got some water over our heads.  Lucky for me I had the camera with as I got a couple of, what I think, are nice shots...  No these are not the kind of shots shooter takes Big Grin, but I was certainly thinkin he woulda liked ta be there. 
So the question is :Smile Wink :Smile Tongue.......Where were we...


Re: Where in the World Were We???? - AandA - 10-26-2006

Here are two more photos... :o :o

So put it together...Where can you see this kind of biodiversity with this kind of viz this time of year Wink???

So, my guess is Baja, California and the Sea of Cortez!?!?!  Awesome Rays!!!


Re: Where in the World Were We???? - AandA - 10-26-2006

Excellent guess ;D!!! Very educated and thoughtfull!  WISH THATS WHERE WE HAD GONE.......

Hi Art and Alyson, 

Great Pictures.  Thanks for sharing them with all of us.  We are all wishing we were with you.  I would also like to say....    this is a great topic....    where in the world are A & A

MY 1st.  GUESS IS...  1.  somewhere in the GULF of Mexico.    Not trying to hog all the location guess's  I will limit it to that.

Stuppid guess, I dont have time to verify, but I'm going to say the Atlanta aquarium.
See I said it was stupid.

That shot of the grouper almost put me into a seizure! I went into instant predator mode :o. After putting my desk back together and my monitor back on my computer.........
My guess would be the southern tip of the Gulf or into the Caribbean

Still searching for tomorrow's dive site..........

AHAAAAHHHH IVE GOT IT!!!!

Discovery world!!!! ;D

OK,OK.....i cant tell if those are spotted eagle rays...but who cares..
I am still going to guess....Western Australia...(Ningaloo Reef?)

I wish it was Lake Michigan..so we all could see... Big Grin


Re: Where in the World Were We???? - AandA - 10-27-2006

The correct answer has been given :o :o

I've heard of there being no such thing as a stupid question, but a stupid answer....Hmmmm. 

I did include smileies and winks in the post.  I also never mentioned that I was diving but but indicated that we got water over our heads (all true Wink)

Wetdrm ya know yer fishies and keep up ta date on where there could be captive whale sharks.

Yup. Alyson and I went down ta Georgia ta visit her Mom.  While there we stopped at the Atlanta aquarium.  As ya might be able to tell I was quite impressed.  One of my favcorite things ta do when diving is watchin the aquatic life.  I simply could not resist this bit of humor...

By the way Shooter would not have stood a chance as we had to pass through a metal dector just to get into the place. 

PS  The rays were Cownosed

Besides this being a really cool test....and some neat pics, i think the idea was first class......what about running a thread called where am i or where were we....people take photos and give hints and see if folks cat tell where they were.....

sounds fun to me
