Introduction	My career in marine education didn't start until 1994 but it seems certain that I would get there eventually. I love water, the look and feel of it, how it catches light, the surprising explosion when rain hits, then cleans, scours and shapes the land. I wonder how it can have all three characteristics -- solid, liquid or gas. I am fascinated to look into clean clear water and find that it is a window to another world. I am greatful that I can walk along a beach with a troubled heart and come away soothed. I'm amazed at the variety of life born of the sea and how it has sought out every place to find a unique niche to inhabit. Water organisms seem to be of every shape and size, colour and marking. I respect the power of the sea and am in awe of how its dynamic mass shapes our weather our history and our lives. My dream is that all Australians recognise and participate in protecting their amazing waters. It is little wonder then that introducing you to the Australian Marine Environment Protection Association and its remarkable education and information network is why I started this blog.
