Catching up

Wow, time flies when you're having fun....and now, I have been having a lot of fun.

I sure hope it is because of the fun, would be scary to think otherwise.

So I guess it is time to break the silence and share a few details (for those of you who aren't following me on FB/G+ ;) of what I have been up to in the recent months.

Travels and adventure!

It all started off with Malta, as mentioned in a previous post, where we went to get our diving certificates. A lot of fun, adrenaline rushes and kicks were had.

Ever tried being 18 meters below the surface, inside the wreck of a sunken ship? No?

It should be tried, it is a very unique experience.

 I'm not claustrophobic, but let's say it did get me on my toes.

But in the end we have been certified to dive down to 18 meters!

Next step would be the advanced course and certification for 40 meters.

A much more detailed version, with pictures, can be found here, in the diving post conveniently hidden in the past.

The return to Ireland ended up being quite short. A few days in Dublin and a few days spent in Cork - and then it took off to Amsterdam and the festival that is Sensation White.
This was only topped by the fact that my family decided to make a spontaneous surprise road trip down to Amsterdam.

"So now you know why I like doing things on a whim!"

Sights were seen, tours were taken and pancakes of different kinds were eaten!
We did also to visit Madame Tussaud's while in Amsterdam. I must say, it was not as impressive as some people may think it is. For me, it only gave a realization of how short famous people actually are.
I don't know why, but it did surprise me that people were actually taking pictures with the wax statues of celebrities.

"I mean, I can understand if it was Lenin, Churchill or Rembrandt....but Robbie Williams and Victoria Beckham?"

Though...at one point I realized that even I had to take a picture. The internet made me do it!

End of June update!

Things keep on happening and life keeps on moving.
I have so much I wish to write about but I just have not had time, between all the events.
Then once again, I find myself in a place where there's a flight waiting to take me to Amsterdam - and with it, Sensation White, for which I am bringing my amazing prop - the horse.

But before I go,  I just quickly need to post an update on my progress.

The new weight total for end of June was on the stunning 116 kg!

See, tracker is already updated! ->

As you know, I have been vacationing throughout June. This time it was also a lot of workout, as well as relaxation - to the point where I though I might not have gone down at all. But I did! :D

There's a food and workout log waiting to be posted, but that has to wait for when I return, as now I got to run and catch a flight!

Enjoy the weekend, everyone!
