Diving Maui 2009 from Gary Christenson on Vimeo.
We spent the afternoon scuba diving - just the two of us and it was unbelievable. We shot some video and snapped some photos of our two different dives... so click PLAY on the above video and see what it's like hangin' out 55+ feet deep underwater in the Pacific Ocean (If you have a slow connection, pause the video and let it load all the way, then press play).
We swam / paddled / dived (however you say scuba-ing) out to this outer reef and sat on the edge looking out into deep blue nothingness just listening to the whales sing (it's humpback whale season right now in Maui and it's like "whale soup" out there (tons of them around)). They were extremely loud and we thought we'd see one swim on by... but we did not... bummer. They were seriously soooo close. Maybe next time. But we did get to see TONS of fish, awesome coral life, countless turtles and one lonely eel. Thanks to Nate & Jenna for watching Joelle so we could get some more dives under our belt! Courtney got scuba certified in beautiful Cancun, and Gary got certified in the frigid waters of northern Oregon... we love sharing these kind of adventures together! And bringing a camera along made it even better! Enjoy.

Nice man, that video was awesome. I really enjoyed seeing that. I can definitely get into scuba diving more - although the only time I've gone was in Colombia which was a bit sketch considering they let met dive without a class or even a watching a video, just a 10 minute crash course on the way to the boat. I guess that's the epitome of Colombia though. Anyways, beautiful "underwaterness."
K, that was just spectacular. I'm scared to death just to snorkel (long story) but you made me want to give it another go! Keep havin' fun!!
OMG! I loved watching this video, but i think Manoah liked it more.. He kept pointing at the screen saying, "FISHES!" beautiful!
