I have been going through PADI open water certification, and I realize I missed my boat 30 years ago. I really love being in the water. And I mean IN it. This intrigues me so much that I find myself wanting more and more every day. I really love this. Last night I blogged about Submarine cruising, and what an amazing vacation that would be. Well, for me it would be. I realize there are those of you out there who may feel a little claustrophobic. But I also know that we all have the ability to overcome our fears to experience new heights in our well being.
My high school is planning their 30 year class reunion. Holy cow! 30 Years! I have suggested to the committee that we take a cruise as a class, instead of getting together in our home town of Mesa, AZ for a Friday evening, then a partial Saturday during a weekend. I expressed how much of a better deal everyone would get if we cruised. Such as, for the price, everything is included...food, entertainment, lodging, fun activities, and even getting together in a meeting room. There are pools, dancing, karaoke, games...you get the picture. For a little more than an evening and a morning, this is a much better deal. For me, it means getting back to the ocean. You know...the Water. And wherever we go, I know I can get in the water and explore this part of the world. Fish, creatures, whales, plants. Scuba or snorkel, it does not matter to me. I just want to be in the water.
My point in all this is, if your vacations have become Blah. Go get scuba certified. It cheap. It is easy. It is safe. And when you go to Cancun for a week, go out to Isla Mujeras and swim with Whale Sharks, the largest fish in the ocean. They have no teeth and have never eaten a human. If you take a western Caribbean cruise and you stop in Grand Cayman, the birth place of scuba; go out and swim with the stingrays, instead of just standing there. Belize has the 2nd largest coral reef system in the world. Stuart Cove's in Nassau Bahamas will take you scuba diving with Caribbean Reef Sharks. Heaven only knows what can be explored in the Mediterranean. Ship wrecks?!
If you are in Utah County, I highly recommend Scuba Teds Dive Center, 50 N Main St, Springville, UT. Mike Brothersen is my instructor.
We Are Here For You
