Cayman Islands: Sunken Ship For Scuba Diving |
|
|
|
The newest attraction for scuba-diving tourists in the Caymans is the former US Navy submarine rescue ship, the USS Kittawake.
After more than 40 years of service in war and peace, the old ship was deliberately sunk, finding a permanent resting place on the harbor floor as an artificial reef. In the crystal-clear water, divers can swim down the 15 feet to explore the ship’s exterior and interior.
There are five decks, bridge, crew’s quarters, mess hall and other declassified structures still intact. The Kittawake is just a mile offshore from Grand Cayman's popular Seven Mile Beach and other tourist areas.

Ottawa Airport: Someone’s listening to you! |

It seems Big Brother has come to Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. In addition to security cameras, sections of the Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport now have mikes sensitive enough to pick up visitors’ private conversations, including those about business, monkey business or otherwise.
What’s next: Cameras in the rest rooms? Or maybe they’re already there.
