That was a good one. Oh boy!
Diving
The first couple of days, I kept chickening out (Thanks, Sara, for that apt description
) at 25m instead of going to my (then) PB of 32, which was my goal for the first days.
It was Sebastian's (Naslund) advice to 'Just let the rope down to 32 and then go there next time' that got me started in my CWT training, so the next day Marc (Guerrin) did safety for my new PB down to 34m In the bay. The day after it was 36 in the Blue Hole, the day after that 38m, again the blue hole, and the next day 40m. Pretty cool. Now the rope I bought a couple of months ago will be too short for much improvement.
Watching people like Annelie, Peter, Sebastian, Sara, Anna, Will T., and all the others out there is pretty inspiring.
Sadly, then a cold with stuffy nose and all kept me almost dry for the rest of the vacation. I felt good enough though to go out with rbsub's Family for their training and/or some fun diving / snorkelling / picture taking..
