No, I didn't win the lottery so I'm not getting ready for that around-the-world dive trip. And I don't expect to see that vision of loveliness I've been seeking under the ocean for some 48 years.
However, today I received an e-mail from my son Kevin (23) who just returned from a week long cruise to Mexico with his Mom who recently got remarried. While down there, Kevin and his GF Mary tried a Discover SCUBA, and sent back pictures for me to identify. I wasn't impressed with the dive instructor who was practically out of sight. The important thing is he not only survived it, but now he is thinking of getting certified!
Although Kevin loved the water and we have snorkeled together, I thought he wouldn't be able to dive because of his asthma. Apparently it is not that bad and he may be certifiable! I've already offered him one of my "old" BCD's. What a cool early birthday present.
I Can't Believe What I May Soon See Underwater!
