17th Century Wreck – See It With Your Feet Dry!

A scale model of what the Vasa Ship looked like. On display at the Vasa Museum.

Did you ever see a wreck that looked this great? I'm betting you never did, unless  you've been to the Vasa Museum in Sweden, because Vasa is the only 17^th century ship left in the world. I recently visited what is called the most popular museum in Scandinavia. In my opinion it is definitely the greatest maritime museum in the World!

Common Octopus

The common octopus (Octopus vulgaris) is -well- common, and widespread. It is not considered a threatened species. There are quite a lot of them, but most of the time they are difficult to spot because they prefer to hide and are able to camouflage themselves so very well. It is a very impressive sight when you do see them.

The common octopus is an impressive sight. This one was spotted near Aqaba, Jordan. In water only about two meters deep. In the Red Sea.
