Off to Thailand

We're off tomorrow to go to Thailand until Jan 4th. We're both really excited about it. I've been before but this is Tiff's first time.

We're going to Phuket, Railay, and Ko Phi Phi (this is the area that they filmed "The Beach" at). We'll be sunning, diving, and doing some rock climbing in Tonsai.

Loki and Thor


We picked up Loki last Wednesday night, and after a couple of rough separated days, the boys are now best buddies.

Back from Port Douglas


We just got back from Port Douglas (tropical north Queensland). We had an amazing time -- did some scuba on the barrier reef, a crocodile river cruise (saw 2 small crocs), had some good beach time, a wildlife park, and generally just relaxed. Can't believe that all of that is only 3 hours away :)

It was stinger (box jellyfish == potentially lethal) season there, so you could only swim within the netted area, but that worked out fine.

The diving on the reef was really nice. We saw 2 white tip reef sharks, some really amazing fish and some giant clams.

The photoset is here.

Moved in and certified

It's been a while since our last post because we've been extremely busy. We are all moved into our new apartment now, and very happy about it. We're not quite ready to post photos of it yet, though, as we still have some setting up to do :)

Last Saturday Tiff got her scuba dive certification! She is now officially an Open Water Diver! Just in time for our trip next week to Port Douglas (barrier reef) in tropical Queensland (the deep north).

Tiff's mum, Mary, arrived on Sunday and will be going with us to Port Douglas as part of her 2 week stay here. We'll be sure to post a lot of photos from there.

LA Trip photos


I was in LA all last week working from the Evite office. It was good to see the people I knew again and meet the new people.
I got to catch up with a few friends there as well.

Photoset is here.

I had no trouble getting back into "LA mode". Have to say I don't miss the traffic :)

Thor was delivered to us over the weekend. He's an adorable little ball of trouble.
Here he is "helping" me work.
