tis the end of the season, but the little man has figured out how to float and swim on his back. We had one last nice swim day and took full advantage.
A woman floats in the clear water of Barracuda Lake, a brackish lake with an interesting 38C / 100F themocline at 15m of depth, located on the north of Coron Island.
I’ve been eyeing these inflatable cup holders for literally a year now but I could never justify paying $10-$20 for *one* but turns out Cotton On (a clothing store) is clearancing out a whole bunch for $3 each so I had to grab one.
I picked the swan cuz, next to the flamingo, it’s one of the most common pool floats I’ve seen on Instagram.
Henry’s enjoying floating around in my bath tub though.
This is the Coal Harbor waterfront. This shot was taken in the very early stages of the new convention centre construction. It is quite far along now, but in this shot all you see are the pilings.
The aircraft is a De Havilland Beaver.

The Westland Whirlwind helicopter was a British licence-built version of the US Sikorsky S-55/H-19 Chickasaw. It primarily served with the Royal Navy's Fleet Air Arm in anti-submarine and search and rescue roles. It was also exported to other countries. The helicopter was made in many variants using a variety of radial (piston) and turbine engines. Note the engine access doors are open - this seems to be a feature of all the Brunei Whirlwind images I hold, suggesting that removal of heat from the engine compartment was a problem...
Whirlwind helicopters fitted with turbine power served right up until the early 1980s, and a converted Whirlwind was in the Queen's Flight, although Queen Elizbeth II never flew in it.
This is a Westland Whirlwind SRS.3, serial no. WA/491, built in 1964. It is seen on an improvised landing pad somewhere in Brunei. It was being operated by the Angkatan Tenara Udara Diraja Brunei (Royal Brunei Air Force), perhaps trialling the fitted floats in field conditions (see earlier and later photos in this album).
This was a PR photo and is scanned from a print retained by the RAF pilot on secondment. I do not have an exact site for this photo, so the map location is entirely arbitrary.
Floating away on a dream. Lost in a space of her own where time has no beginning and imagination has no end.
Large colorful glass balls, up to 40 inches in diameter, fill an antique boat in this exhibition by Dale Chihuly at San Francisco's de Young Museum. Chihuly calls these orbs his 'Niijima Floats' . He was inspired to create the Niijima floats after visiting friends in Niijima, an island in Tokyo Bay. They are reminiscent of traditional Japanese fishing floats and are among the largest free-blown forms ever created. Chihuly began the series in 1991, experimenting by using glass made from Niijima's beach sand. The floats were installed along the island's coast, many of which were sent out to sea. To this day, millions of traditional fishing floats still drift in the Pacific trade currents. It's good luck to find one on the beach.
The boat and orbs are reflected against the black glass bottom they are set upon. It's a remarkable display. No flash photography was allowed. The speckles of white light reflected on the glass bottom were from overhead lights that illuminated the display.

919D111 are weight 238 grams so maybe is better locking for: 950D111 ( 4,5-15v ) with re 385 motor. radio 1:11 weight 146 grams or 918D 151/1 1,5-3v ratio 1:15 (4mm shaft) or 918D 15112/1 12-24v ratio 1:15 (4mm shaft) they are only 72 grams

and remember to put the vent hole in the float to let moist get out.
It is also necessary to have locks on the wing floats to prevent the screw jack from breaking if someone pushes onto the boats.
This float was pelted with half-full water bottles, bibles, eggs, stones and petards by the far right protestors - Europride parade, Plac Bankowy, Warsaw - 17 July 2010
The 1947 electric milk float (until 1960 it was a bread van) was invited to do a few circuits of the arena inbetween military displays. The driver on this occasion was formerly a pilot. Being food related and just post-war, it was exhibited near the Ministry of Food display.

I was looking at some older photos and ran across a photo of a green glass float. I cropped it quite a bit for this image. I took this on on nearby Bailey Island. They often are made of recycled glass and the process is done quickly resulting in bubbles of air trapped in the glass.
Glass floats, glass fishing floats, or Japanese glass fishing floats are popular collectors' items. They were once used by fishermen in many parts of the world to keep their fishing nets, as well as longlines or droplines afloat.
Large groups of fishnets strung together, sometimes 50 miles (80 km) long, were set adrift in the ocean and supported near the surface by hollow glass balls or cylinders containing air to give them buoyancy. These glass floats are no longer being used by fishermen, but many of them are still afloat in the world's oceans, primarily the Pacific. They have become a popular collectors' item for beachcombers and decorators. Replicas are also being manufactured. (wikipedia)
