Garnerbiker's Journey on planet Earth

This blog started as a trip journal for the summer of 2011 Europe trip of 69 days. My wife Katherine, and I decided to use the entire summer break that teachers get, and go crazy. Everything was new to us. I was surprised at the blog's following. It has now become a tradition to travel on our breaks and blog about it. I write mostly as a journal for myself and students, but also give travel ideas to others that might want to travel like us, or go to the places we have seen. Take a look at what's on here. The experiences that I have had through travel are continuously shaping my life. I recommend you get out there and do it!

Heading to the South Pacific!!!

Hello everyone.  It's been a while, I know.  We are heading out on a massive dive trip to the South Pacific.  Specifically, Palau and Truk Lagoon.  This trip has been in the works for many years, and it is finally happening.  As I look back at my childhood memories, I remember watching some dive footage of Truk Lagoon and being mesmerized.  Not only is it a time capsule of World War 2, but a spectacle in which the Sea is taking over and creating new life.  I can't wait to see it first hand.

Travel has already been a little crazy, with our first leg being delayed 3 hours from Las Vegas to Los Angeles, but it will work itself out.  The rest of the trip goes like this.

Los Angeles --> Honolulu --> Guam --> Yap --> Koror






Partially packed dive gear.
