We are officially PADI certified in scuba diving. After completing our pool dives, getting A's on our exam and completing safe open water dives at Shelly Beach we are good to go. It might be time to book that trip to the Great Barrier Reef in addition to the night dive and boat dive we already booked.
I've got to admit it was easier than expected, even though Dan is apparently very bouyant and needed 27 pounds of weight to sink, we both did really well under water. I think Joanne found her calling, she was in her element. We were able to see some pretty cool stuff down there; stingrays, big blue groppers, sea urchins, a motorcycle (not a type of fish, an actual motorcycle), an emoray eel, and a wobbegong shark that almost took off the hand of our instructor. After the course was completed the school treated us to BBQ and beers...my kind of place.
Now that the course is complete and we have a free weekend, we are headed to Melbourne for this upcoming weekend, should be a blast.
