Not.. another day at the office!

 

Indian Ocean. About 2800 km from Mumbai. 9 of February 2012

Me and the dive masters Nicole and Natasha made two visits below surface.  The first one we went around the tiny island you see on the picture. Beautiful corals steaming with life!

My first attempt with the underwater house.. learning.. it’s so difficult. 95% throw aways.  Smiling anyway!!

Håkan goes pocketable 2!

It´s a compact camera! Playing, learning, testing.  Limitations and possibilities.  Gothenburg, Sweden. End of January!

O rio mar!

  The Amazon river close to Santarem.

A few weeks ago I presented a photo from the Iguazu falls. Iguazu means great waters, and that place is for sure an impressive sight!

This is another place worthy of superlatives. At times when you travel by boat on the the Amazon it appears to be more like an ocean. In fact there are stretches of the river that are more than 40 kilometers wide..!!

Click on photo for high res.. click on tag Amazon river to see more pictures from that trip.

Refreshing Presidente beer!

Playa Rincón. Dominican Republic january 2011.

Floating!

  Pure fun in a plastic globe floating around in a pool

Göteborgs Kulturkalas (Cultural party). One week each summer with a never-ending number of activities for all ages. Last summer.

Iguazú do Brasil!

  Iguazú is guaraní and means  “great waters” !

The falls was recently declared one of 7 provisional natural wonders of the world. Borders of Argentina, Paraguay and Brazil meet here.

The pirate of the Titicaca lake!

Indisposed (to put it mildly) I stayed a few days in the Bolivian village Copacabana, (no, not the one in Rio) at the Titicaca lake  to recover.

When most of the amoebas had left my body I rented a rowing boat to get some exercise.

Just below 4000 m above sea level Titicaca is the highest navigable lake in the world. Sitting in a boat looking at the surrounding Andean mountain range is a sublime experience, and if on top of that the pirate of the Titicaca lake appears, there is not much more to desire is there?

The enormous lake is crossing the border between Bolivia and Peru. According to the Peruvian popular humour La parte de caca queda en Bolivia the (caca:shit) shitty part is placed in Bolivia.

In a way I can confirm that!
