It's all about what your body gets used to. Hated the cold up into my 20s as a NYC area kid. Then hated the heat after a few years in N. Manitoba (like 3 months of daytime temps. below minus 25F--not including wind chill). Now with all those years here in NS I started to feel the cold again gradually while diving. Think I'm "in the middle" now....
Peacock I today. Did Peanut for both dives. Got back to Breakdown Room both dives, when I had to turn the dive before I hit thirds due to ear issues. Diving thirds since I’m doing guided dives with an instructor. Getting fills to 3800 is downright luxurious. I drive an hour each way to get 3000 locally.
First dive was quite challenging, but second was much better. New DR EX 35 light is excellent. So nice having more light. Don’t like the hard goodman handle though. The handle is adjusted as small as it will go and it’s still slipping off my hand much too easily. Would be different with dry gloves and liners, but I’m diving with bare hands. Going to use the soft glove tomorrow. Also going to take more weight off.
Awesome having more than body length viz. I’m used to green water. This is blue. We ran by Orange Grove just to look at it. Wow.
Ginnie tomorrow. Third day with instructor is Friday and probably Little River.
Ran into Jared Hires floating on the surface as we were getting in.

Going to give them a try for the first time this weekend. And since they aren't scuba specific they are actually pretty reasonable, I wait for sales and get them for about $20 a pair.

Ginnie was kinda mild for flow today, for Ginnie (which is still a ton more flow than Peacock yesterday). She's got a good instructor showing the ropes down here though, so I'm sure things will go fine.
