May I have this dive?
Via Reuter's Oddly Enough Blog, the record for underwater dancing was set this past week in Sydney, Austrailia. Seventy-four scuba divers danced underwater together for at least 10 minutes. The event also raised money for charity.

Leave for fall.
If you're itching for a road trip this weekend, there's still time to see the changing colors of fall here in the U.S. Gorp.com has a helpful guide of where to go to see the best colors. Right now, it looks like the Pacific Northwest and the Mid-South.

The most photographed event in the world.
This week in Albuquerque, they're celebating the International Balloon Fiesta. About 1,000 balloons decorate the skies over the city on mass ascension days. If you're driving through the area, look for the balloons in the early morning hours. You can also visit the launching site and talk up an old pilot or two. (Photo by Scott Williams.)
