Last night's Dive 4 was scarier. Not THAT scary. I mean, it was scarier, but I'd been having so many problems with my bouyancy that it really threw me off and made me unconfident about my abilities. I crashed into our guide a few times and accidentally crashed coral twice. It really sucked. Plus we couldn't really see anything. BUT we did see a shark. and a pile of me-sized fish. It wasn't cool at the time but tonight we'll go on another night dive and i'm hoping it will be better.
I want to say that after a good night's sleep I emerged refreshed and calm, but there was a big storm last night and the boat was crazy rocking. We have a window in our cabin and from about 3 AM we could look out to see stars/sea/stars/sea/stars/sea... uggghhhhh. And all the passenger's stuff left on the tables were on the floor this morning.
We've done three dives today already and they've been great. I added a weight to help manage my bouyancy and air and it was perfect. BUT The Boy had mask issues and surfaced without my knowing. It was a terrible and horrible 30 seconds, but we're ok about it now, and it won't happen again. We considered doing the advanced diver course and the adventure diver course, but we're going to do them back at home. We're still just getting our diving fins on. :)
Today we saw TONS of amazing fish including a grey reef shark, a whitetipped reef shark, several turtles, clown fish, parrot fish, a quebecfish (leopard printed rabbitfish), humbugs, half and half pullers, and a blue-spotted stingray among a billion other fish we'd never see at home. It's just all so beautiful.
