December Diving

I went diving on Sunday!! It was soooooo much fun!! We have this great deal going with a local dive shop named Day Dream. We get 3 dives for $40 whenever and wherever we want to go. They love us! We have so much fun with the dive master and the other staff divers. Our dive master's name is Soachi (So-I) and our driver's name is Boxy but when he first introduced himself to us we thought he said Foxxy so now we call him Foxxy B. HA! Then our other staff diver is named Spiece. We have inside jokes and sayings for all of them. They always want to go on our dives because they say we are so much more fun. We like to laugh and have fun....what can I say. :-D

Anyways, on this particular trip we went on 3 dives. Our divespots were German Channel, Blue Corner, and Helmet Ship (a shipwreck dive!). At German Channel we saw 2 mantarays and at both German Channel and Blue Corner we saw TURTLES!!! I was soooo excited!! The shipwreck dive was so cool. The ship sunk in 1944 during WWII. It's called Helmet Ship because a bunch of helmets were left and you can find them scattered through the ship. There were also old beer bottles left behind, guns, bombs, and barrels of something. We were able to go through the whole ship and stood on the bow of the boat like in Titanic. The bow was the lowest point sitting at about 75-80 feet down. It was a blast. There are pictures posted!

In the end, I'm more than happy that I went diving and I can't wait to go again. By far the turtles were the highlight of my trip and it's funny because now every time I see the other divers they always tease me about how excited I was. I'm sure you can imagine my excitement. :-D

Hope this finds everyone well...until next time. Much Love!
