Intermediate Posting from Manado

It is an interesting feeling to not connect to the Internet for a week. I have been diving in Indonesia and access to the Internet has been spotty. All I did when I finally connected was run few a few important e-mails and delete those that had built up.

This is also the first time for a while I have traveled with a notebook, my Acer Travelmate in this case. Mostly I have been using it to transfer across my diving photos and videos. My Lumix ZS7 has performed well and digital is of course the only way to shoot underwater as it is so forgiving. Video usage sucks up the battery life and you can;t change one underwater.

Just about any digital camera is good it really depends on what underwater housings are available. Some work down to 40 meters but I picked up an Ikelite that will go down to 60m. This trip didn't even get close to 40m however as it is a simple recreational single tank diving trip. Low stress and very relaxing

So no IT to speak of so not much to report.
