It was pretty neat, though as homogenized and orchestrated as you would expect in the States. They have a fake coral reef you can snorkel around that has some really big spotted rays, and a stingray pool containing about 50 (when we were there) smaller rays that you can touch if you’re patient and fast enough. There is also a very boring “tropical river” that runs through an aviary. However, if you are alert you may find an underwater window from the “river” into the “reef” that is neat. https://www.jpsdomain.org/photos/deck/deck_pics/index.html Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.jpsdomain.org/photos/deck/deck_pics/index.html Drilling post holes Post hole & concrete Post holes around the Hot Tub Frame (beams) & 6x6 posts https://www.jpsdomain.org/photos/deck/deck_plans/index.html Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.jpsdomain.org/photos/deck/deck_plans/index.html Specifications Total Area 616.25 SQ Ft Live Load (Deck & Stairs) = 60 PSF Footer Depth = 36" Beam Size 2-2x10 Deck Beams Internal Joist Size 2x10 Joist Spacing 12" OC Post Size 4x4 Post Setting On top of footers Decking 1x6 T&G (extruded plastic) Decking Spacing Zero Rail Section Size 4.5’ to 5.5’ varies Rail Cap 1x6 (extruded plastic) Rail Spindles 2x2 (extruded plastic) chamfered Deck Screws Stainless Fascia Size 1/2x8 Hot Tub Access Panel 7'6" x 2'6" to left of tub (tub is actually 7'6" x 7'6") Hot Tub Footer Detached from deck, on gravel & PT 4x4 pad Drawings from 3D Deck https://www.jpsdomain.org/photos/scuba/index.html Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.jpsdomain.org/photos/scuba/index.html We were PADI certified by O’Donnel Diving and Lahaina Divers in early 2001.

Pictures from Hawaii (January 2001) We took all of the following pictures (click on the image to see the full size version) with a cheap, disposable underwater camera (no flash), then I scanned the pictures in and built this page.
