111 Days

Today I did a bit of studying for my Adventures in diving course. I did allot of handy man work around the house which I really enjoy doing. I love fixing stuff. I joined Tegan for a cup of coffee at Bamboo cafĂ©. It was very nice, we basically had a DMC (deep, meaningful, conversation- lol) She’s a real nice girl and I can see us becoming good friends. I made my way back home and packed my gear and made my way to the beach to do my final dive of the course – navigation. It was a very cool dive but a lil tricky. I had to do a search and recovery exercise with a compass and counting your kick cycles. Neil the sneaky bugga knew I would come pretty close to the ship wreck which made my compass go crazy which in turn made me lose my count with my kick cycles. He knew this would happen and threw me off course :P once we exited the water Neil congratulated me and said not many people recover the object so quickly J YAY.

We made our way back home and cleaned our gear and prepared for a night dive J I was pretty stoked, I was about to clock my 70th dive.  We eventually made our way to the beach (because girls were taking forever -lol) we made our way into the water and our decent to the first hull where we decided to turn off our torches and saw hundreds of flash light fish! It’s truly something to see! I made my way to the starboard side of the ship (alone) and turned off my torch for 5 minutes and when I turned it back on again and I was surrounded by some BIG fish! It was fantastic, I really enjoy my night dives. They so calming and peaceful kind of like doing tyche. We came home and listened to tons of WWII stories from the dude staying in my room. It was very interesting J
