No more Titanic Dives...

So I have list of things I'd do when I win the lottery... There's a company that does (did) Titanic dives and as people that know me know I'm obsessed with the Titanic. It costs $60,000 to take a Titanic dive! Crazy right?? Thats why it's on my 'When I Win the Lottery' list. Unfortunately the only company that does this is no longer doing it. Apparently they quit doing these dives in 2005 but had so many people request it for the Century Anniversary that they are doing 3 trips this summer and then thats it. So looks like I'll have to cross this off my list. :( So very sad.

So a bit of extra info - Each trip they take to the site is 12 days long. Takes 2-1/2 hrs to dive down to the site. They take 20 people on each 12-day trip. The 3 trips they have planned for this summer are are sold out... 20 people x 3 trips x $60,000... what does x equal? Thats a lot of money!!!

Here's the website if you want to know more. :) http://www.cnn.com/2012/04/10/travel/titanic-last-dive/index.html

6 Months since my last blog???

September? Really? Wow. I’m such a slacker. So a lot has happened since September….Here’s a 30-second update and then I’ll start blogging again tonight….

I went to see the Jacksons in Columbus, GA for Thanksgiving, did nothing much for Christmas, had a not-so-hoppin’ New Years Eve party, finished my yearly letters and Christmas cards and sent them all in January (is that too late?), went to Isla Mujeres, Mexico for my birthday, and nothing much else has happened since then.

Isla Mujeres was great! First time I’ve been there and would definitely go back. Very relaxing trip aside from the Cenote ceiling falling in on us…. That was scary! Here’s some photos from Isla….
