Under the sea
Ok, I have sat through 3 nights of scuba classroom sessions, learning the theory and principles behind what I have dreamt of doing for a long time. Some nearly 12 hours of information and plenty of reading have led me to this assessment - I need to do this.
Yes, there are dangers and risks involved but just about all of them are within the control of the diver so long as they follow the correct procedure and don’t take silly unnecessary risks. It is not easy and requires a lot of thought and planning to ensure that dive is safe. The equipment that you depend on is heavy and needs detail attention. But all in all, I think this is going to be amazing.
Next week we will finish up the theory and then it’s on to the pool to start practising actual techniques. Then by the end of August we will head for open water for the real thing.
My number one lesson for this week?
JUST KEEP BREATHING
