Well look at you Charlie!!! Buoyancy is all you need to maneuver through a bus!! Well unfortunately not all of us are as wonderful and experienced as you, especially with LOW vis and no fin. Teach me your ways!! :teeth:

Hay Cutie,

I started just like you did. Experience comes with time and lots of dives. Trust me ...... when you hit blue water you will really appreciate all of the things that you learned when diving in zero vis. It helps lots when you have issues in water and can handle the problem calmly since you had practice.

Follow me and I'll show you lots of little tips and ticks that will make your diving easier and more enjoyable. I may be going on more trips with Kamala as soon as I figure out my financial situation.

The way things went on that night. You stayed up in the camp site even if you weren't there at the hot tub.

Great photos, and it sounds like a great time by all. I am sorry that I was not able to get to Athens, but it was nice to see many of you at the "SuperDave" happy hour Tuesday. I am glad you enjoyed the weekend, and I look forward to the next one.
I understand the dive trip list now includes tent stakes and rope.

What a fun weekend in Athens! Thanks go to Dejah (Deb) for coming up with the idea for this event, to Dejah,WW, and Narwhal for all their work putting together the details, and Zendiver for the great pictures and trip report. Thanks also to Tekdiver (Marc) for leading us on the tour, thru the "cave system" and letting us play with the scooter. Thanks go to the 4 angels for being young, pretty, and wearing bikinis. Thanks go to Sandy, Kim and Gar for being good dive buddies and not allowing me to go deeper than 25'. Let's do this again since I got an air-mattress now. Tom.
