August 2007 trip to Providenciales- friends and family and underwater

Galina got me an underwater camera (actually a Panasonic/Lumix DMC-TZ1). So we used it on this year's trip to Providenciales. We did one Snuba1 trip (shallow dives with tanks on rafts on the surface) at the reef at Coral Gardens- a truly great time, lead by Jodi2. We also did two separate snorkel trips, also to the reef at Coral Gardens. We were able to hook up with our great friends Brian and Elisabeth and their 7 month old twins, James and Sophie. Richard and Joy from the U.K. were also on the island, and my (Rich's) mother, Adele, visited for part of the time. We had a wonderful time all round.
