Hi, I am Chris from Boca Raton.

It's a small town in South Florida where some Americans come to debate before TV cameras. It also is my new home, or... shelter (after twenty two years in Seattle, WA). Before I left Seattle, it was my shelter from Moscow, USSR.

I am nearly done with my OW certification, and I hope to start exploring Florida diving sites soon. This forum looks like an ideal place to meet new friends and dive buddies. I am honored to become part of this community, and look forward to being an avid reader and active contributor!

Dive safely!
Chris

Wow! Do we have a case of Google Translate experimentation here, or The Russians Are Coming for real?!

lol. not Russian but I've been working on learning Russian for about 8 years. I have a Russian son-in-law and grandchildren being raised totally bilingual so it comes in handy. Unfortunately while I can read it and understand a lot of what is being said to me I have extreme difficulty in speaking in back to someone. My five year old granddaughter regularly corrects me. lol When we were in Russia I have to admit I was glad I had my daughter with me who could translate for me.... although the words the lady was yelling at me in the market didn't really didn't need translation.... don't take random pictures of gypsies. They get a little bit upset. lol

M.. although the words the lady was yelling at me in the market didn't really didn't need translation...

Yeah, most of us are like that bitch. Funny, you call her a "lady". Say hi to your extended russki family.
