I had soooooooo much fun today!! I had a semi dry suit on and a vest underneath and I found that much warmer during our first dive. Usually I get quite cold (apparently my lips go blue lol). I've got a hood and gloves for tomorrow though, cause when we did our second dive after lunch I was freezing! The water was 21' so I don't know why I was so cold. It was a thousand times better than in the pool! It was much better than just seeing the blue concrete of the pool :) We could see probably only 3 - 5 metres so that was ok, it wasn't as bad as they thought it would be. The first time we just went for a swim around and didn't do any skills. There was sooooo much to look at - weeds and chains and a rope (which took me a while to realise that we were probably following that so we knew where we were lol). I think I was chewing on my regulator! They were laughing about it at lunchtime because I was hanging onto it! After lunch we had some skills to do before we could go for another swim. This time I had a bit of trouble equalising but when I did get down there I was a lot more relaxed and it went quite well. When I did get out, I couldn't stand or walk - my legs were like jelly :)
The coolest part would have to be coming up when we were near the surface and just floating up towards the light with heaps of bubbles all around. I can't wait till Anzac weekend!! I'm really looking forward to tomorrow :)
