Dive certification – Day 2

Today was such a better day (a little rain to start but calm seas).  The dive part was much smaller too (5 people including me).  Both our  dives were to Manchones in Cancun.  On the first dive dive we saw an underwater cross and some under water statues.  The second dive, we was a TON of fish and coral formations and a school of massive fish that seemed vaguely human (they were other divers).  And as a bonus, I am now a certified PADI open water scuba diver.

Dive certification — day 1

Did my pool session which was informative yet fairly uninteresting.  We then did 2 ocean dives: Santo Remedio (35ft) and Chitales in Cancun (27ft).  The ride out was rough and the diving was fairly mundane.  But I didn’t manage to figure out all my gear and I think I got hooked on diving on my first dive.

On my way to scuba diving….

So I managed to spend the day taking the online version of the PADI Open Water Scuba course.  After an initial serious failure of their site (omg, did children build this for them), I managed to get through it.  So I am excited to get the real diving side of things done while in Cancun.  Scuba diver extraordinaire, here I come.  🙂

The Prisoner, I don't get it

Mikey and I have been watching AMC’s remake of ‘The Prisoner’ and we are both so confused.  It really feels like they just tried to cram too much stuff into 6 hours.  Now my memory could be way off, but I felt like the original was far easier to understand.  Maybe I’ll have to go back and watch that.
