What's been going on.

To start it off Colin and I finally got to go snorkeling. We took a boat out about 15 minutes off the northan coast of Okinawa. The boat driver "chumed" the water with bread crumbs to attract the normal reef fish. It was really cool. Colin fully enjoyed it and really got to see a lot of different types of fish. Here are the pics.

The brown and blue fish was about the size of my torso making the angel fish the size of my head.

Me.


Random fish.

Moving on to last week, I had to do helicopter crash training. Here is a link that explains more. It was pretty tough. I had a hard time on the first day, but by the second day I was actually having a little fun. I will have to do this every 1 to 4 years depending on what unit I am in.

Now moving on to tomorrow. I will be leaving tomorrow morning to go meet the ship in mainland Japan. I will be floating over to the Philipines for few weeks and then on to spend 4 days in Hong Kong. It's gonna kick some big time ass. Well that's about it for now.
