We will be in Panama, Costa Rica and Cuba for the next several weeks taking a well deserved rest from all things sharky.
Actually that's not entirely true as we plan to do some shark diving along the way.
You just can't take the shark outta Shark Diver, you can try, but after a decade it's in our DNA.
To all those who touched our lives this year and made it a better place with your laughter, good will, and sense of adventure we say "thank you" and very Happy New Year.
2012 will be one of the best years ever if 2011 was any indication so let's go shark diving!
