VOANews: Underwater Easter Egg Hunt Begins Off Florida Keys

Dozens of undersea "egg-splorers" donned diving gear Thursday for an underwater egg hunt along a shallow reef off Islamorada in the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary. The event serves as a fundraiser to help area children in need throughout the year. Offered during the Easter holiday to participating divers, the subsea hide-and-seek event is a favorite of Captain Spencer Slate, operator of Captain Slate's Scuba Adventures. "Cottontail" Slate donned a giant bunny suit and dive gear to hide brightly colored eggs for submerged holiday hunters to find. Real eggs and nontoxic colorings were used to avoid any negative environmental impacts to the Keys coral barrier reef, the only of its kind in the continental U.S.

Dollars to Donuts

VOA News: Dollars to Donuts

This is a delicious donut. Here in the U.S., a donut costs about a dollar. But what could this mean? VO: Dollars to Donuts J: Hey Anna, are you still riding with me to Maggie’s party later? A: Yes! And I took a nap earlier, so I am ready to par-tay! J: Great! Dollars to donuts we get stuck in traffic on the way, though. A: Dollars to donuts Maggie’s party will last way past midnight. “Dollars to donuts” means you are sure something will happen. Experts say the phrase first appeared in the 1800s. It replaced similar expressions at the time like “dollars to buttons” and “dollars to dumplings.”
