Studly Lonesome George
I guess Lonesome George is going to be a papa after all. He'll be passing out the cigars in 4 months. Here's an article from Reuters on the famous tortoise.

Jump Blue
A link for those curious about Roberta's diving sport: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gg9e331rKBk Underwater video of a Jump Blue competition. A 15x15m square of rope is set up 10m below the surface. You have to touch the disc at the corner and swim along the square. If you can't hold your breath any more you put a clip on the line to mark your position and swim to the surface. Can be done with or without fins. Apparently Roberta can hold her breath for 5:30 min!!

Back in Davis
OK, I have been home 24 hours now, as of 4 a.m. this morning, and I am still tired & groggy. I love being places but the travel to get there is always exhausting. I did upload my pictures and one taken on that magical day snorkeling around Daphne Minor (Seymour North area) really appeals to me right now. It was taken as we approached the Pelican Beach (my name, don't know the correct one). I developed a close, personal relationship with one of the Pelicans, roosting in the mangroves over my head . . . . Don assured me it means good luck.
