Master Scuba Divers!!
Saturday, August 2nd, 2008Okay we have hit another milestone in our diving adventures yesterday!! Yippie The last speciality we did was Peak Performance Bouyancy, basically it is a course that helps us to be better with our air consumption, keeping off the bottom and coral, and figuring out how much weight we really need. So I was diving with 2.4 Kilos, but found that I really only need about 800grams. Boy did I have a hard time with the first two dives trying to stay down for our safety stop when the tank was nearly empty. Although my air consumption was so much better. Maryanne dropped some weight as well but her booties make her feet float too much which is quite funny to see 🙂 So I think we might get her some really small ankle weights. With less weight her air consumption was as good as the instructors!! Great for her but she still kicks my butt. Thankfully though I pretty much run out of time before air now so it isn’t too bad for me. I know I will get better with time now that I have only one weight, considering I had no problems on my last two dives with staying down. Go Team America!! That is what they call, there is very few Americans here. After four dives yesterday we are taking it easy today, which sucks because the morning and afternoon dives show more whale sharks 🙁 Oh well at least we swam with them once already. Alright that is all I got for now, tonight just a quiet night playing poker 🙂 Then probably diving in the morning, man diving the next morning after poker is rough. I know you guys feel really bad for us, it is such a hard life! 🙂 We are at 60 Dives!
