Paul's 50 Years of Snorkelling

"The Sea, once it casts its spell, holds one in its net of wonder forever." Jacques Cousteau                               "The water is your friend. You don't have to fight with water, just share the same spirit as the water, and it will help you move" Aleksandr Popov                               "Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore." André Gide                               "If you are looking for beauty in Sharm el Sheikh, you need to look underwater" Lonely Planet guide                               "Live in the sunshine, swim the sea, drink the wild air…" Ralph Waldo Emerson                               "I have an underwater camera just in case I crash my car into a river, and at the last minute I see a photo opportunity of a fish that I have never seen." Mitch Hedberg                               "When you finally see what goes on underwater, you realize that you've been missing the whole point of the ocean. Staying on the surface all the time is like going to the circus and staring at the outside of the tent." Dave Barry                               "You can't cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water" Rabindranath Tagore
