G'day I have just moved to the ST Pete area from Brisvegas in QLD Australia.I am a advid diver who knows no one in the area only people a work and they dont dive so I am on here trying to meet some folks to do some huning and traveling.I have noticed here it is hard to meet people so feel free to drop me a note.

I know where Crystal Rivers is cause I have friends there who swim with manatees every chance they can.

Welcome to SB!! Greetings from warm and sunny Brazil!!

You are a brilliant individual, I vote for NYC all the time. Are you in Sao Paulo?

I'm in Rio de Janeiro! Sao Paulo is only good for business... Rio is good for "caipirinha" and diving - but not at the same time...

BTW, from wikipedia:

Caipirinha (pronounced [kaj.pi.'ɾĩ.jɐ]) or [KIE-PUR-REEN-YAH]) is Brazil's national cocktail, made with cachaça (pronounced IPA: [ˌkaˈʃasɐ] [KA-SHA-SA]), sugar and lime. Cachaça is Brazil's most common distilled alcoholic beverage. Like rum, it is made from sugarcane. Cachaça is made from sugarcane alcohol, obtained from the fermentation of sugarcane juice which is afterwards distilled.

Caipirinha sound delicious and will have to try it when I visit. Oops, Sorry, Ken, we're highjacking your intro thread to talk about caipirinha. Back to topic.

WELCOME TO SCUBA BOARD, KEN, from NYC and Rio de Janeiro!!!!!
