Diving Summer'11

I got my diving ticket back in Spring 07 with a bunch of friends, and summer was pretty much set out. Almost every week was a dive trip, and it was such good fun! We went a bit over the top, bought all our gears, the only thing missing was the BC and tank as it was way too expensive! We even even heading into advanced level until one of us got into a major accident where he got hit by a car riding to work.

Nevertheless, every year after that, we always included diving as a summer agenda. I have to say it's such an amazing feeling when you're in the water, it's so breathtaking and the best thing is, its sooooooo peaceful and serene. All you can hear is your breathing and quietness. :)

So here i am just a few weeks ago, all ready to get into the water. This was a real easy shore dive. As always, we always see something new. This time, we saw a gigantic weird looking snail (size of a cat) in it's glory, dark things hidden in deep seaweeds (didnt really get way into it as we didnt have a torch), and finally a 2M ++ stingray when we were least unexpected. I've had a few encounters with Stingrays and so far, haven't been unpleasant as they tend to be really inquisitive and want to get real close..

Something different besides marine life, an old school mask was found!

Some living organism that has call it home! :)

Finally, I still have trouble equalizing, especially after going past 10M which really shits me. But apparently its a girl thing. :P

Got to have a few more dives before summer ends! :)
