Isla Mujeres- Whale Sharks- June 2008

The boat pulls in front of the whale shark as you, your wife and the guide perch on the side of the boat holding your fins out of the water. The captain tells you when to jump. The whale shark looks like he is barely moving through the water, but as you try to keep pace with them you realize you have to swim at full speed and the sharks is still leaving you in his wake.

Portland Maine 2008

We took the harbor tour in the afternoon. It was well worth the money. The captain was very funny and informative. We got a close up look at several lighthouses and the fort that is located in the middle of the harbor. I highly recommend the trip if you are in Portland.

Salt Lake City 2008

Growing up in Minnesota I did not get a chance to ski deep powder, Snowbird got dumped on Friday and there was still plenty of untracked powder to ski on. Unfortunately, skiing knee-deep powder is hard. We still had a great time.
