Diving Adventures

Here's one for you.

An interesting evening out with the grandparents off to the raffle to try and win a meat tray. Very exciting! Oh we came so close yet came home with nothing more than $20 less than when we walked into the place, but they enjoyed it, and I guess that is what some part of life could be about, people enjoying themselves.

About last night I went for a dive, interesting, to say the least, more so very enjoyable I have found the true "freedom of diving" yes Oceanic make great dive gear and that is their slogan I am using but try take off all the gear besides the mask snorkel fins, boots and the bcd, that's right I'm implying you try diving naked!
By the time I decided to go it was already 630 then I had to select a spot that wasn't busy so there went shiprock, oak park had a sizeable swell so off to Lilly pilli I went where there were a few people fishing but none that could see what I was doing under the water, lucky for them I'd say they'd have been scared for life.
not a long dive only 16mins to a depth of 7.1 mtrs with a temperature of 24 degrees the warmest I've had all year. But long enough and deep enough to count as a dive and to celebrate my 100th dive which was a few weeks ago.
So next time you're out for a dive try it naked you just might enjoy yourself, however I recommend checking the water temp 1st

Hmm, that does not leave a good image in my mind. Sorry mate, but I wouldn't trust fish like the "groper" or the eel that you speak of trying to bite your finger. I think it is natural for women to do such things, but there are no mer-men out there. Oh well hope you enjoyed the freedom, cuz they're going to put you in the dock now. :P

The dock ... oh well i enjoyed it while it lasted. I dare you to try a nude dive whist on the reef mate. i'm sure you'd find some supporters on the boat.

We'll se what we can do, I talked to the shop owner today, he's a cool guy. Look like I could do a dive con internship of 3 months if I wanted to, he just said to give him a call. For now, I'm going to do my advanced O/W upgrade on this trip - costs an extra $60.

I may have to do the night dives with your reccommended 'attire', that way noone will know the difference. :P
