I decided to dig out my Barbie: "2003 / Treasure Hunt" dolls.

The boxes are the same, with identical SKU / product numbers. The only difference int the boxes that I can tell is the inner-lining. The "Treasure Hunt" / Red Head doll has a marginally deeper lavender colour foil lining.

The “Treasure Hunt” doll was limited to only 2500 dolls world wide. 📸

The Java Gold

Swashbuckling adventurers hunt ‘The Java Gold’ in new novel

(press release) Author RobertKingsley takes readers on riveting treasure hunt in post-WWII South East Asia

AMSTERDAM, Netherlands – RobertKingsley gives readers a swashbuckling adventure in his new novel, chroniclingthe exploits of treasure hunters risking life and limb in search for “The JavaGold”

The story begins during the Second World War, as South East Asia is in flames. At the last possible moment, when the Japanese are already launching the final assault on Java, a planeload of pure gold is hurriedly sent off to safety in Australia. A malignant twist of fate intervenes and the gold is lost. For years, the hidden treasure casts its spell on the surviving crew members. Misfortune, violence and death follow in their wake when they try to retrieve the gold after the end of the war.

Their bloody treasure hunt plays out in the Dutch East Indies, a restive place despite the war’s end. As the story continues, their expedition takes them across continents, spanning India, Australia, Europe and North Africa. Their exciting exploits and sizzling romances are juxtaposed with historical developments of places scarred by war and colonialism, the racism of corrupt societies and the emerging threat of terrorism.  The tale is replete with danger and treachery as the pursuit of “The Java Gold” shows the treasure hunters that the price of greed is human life...

This marks the beginning of a series of books following the treasure-hunting rogues. Kingsley blends kinetic action with meticulously researched factual details, infusing the work with his own passion for aviation and the Second World War, giving readers an exhilarating literary experience that’s part historical fact, part pulp fiction and all adventure.

Underwater Treasure Hunt for Scuba Divers

She's back! The Total Diving Montreal scuba diving underwater treasure hunt.

We'll be diving and treasure hunting at the Kahnawake quarry on Tuesday evening, September 13. Write the date in your agenda right away and confirm your participation ($30) at 514-482-1890, or during your next visit to the Total Diving dive center in NDG, Montreal.

Prizes for this underwater treasure hunt are already being accumulated: we'll have a lot of scuba diving equipment (of course!) but also cool stuff like a modern HP printer with "Air Print" for your iPad & iPhone, a cool coffee-maker, DVDs of the "Drop Zone" movies... We'll have fun and, on top of that, everybody should be leaving with "something" ;) 

Pre-requisites: PADI Open Water Diver certification. However, a PADI Advanced Open Water level, with a night diving light, would allow you to dive a bit longer :)
