Hi, Divers,
I have taken up diving at the "mature" age of sixty. I have completed my rescue diver certification with Padi and have just had my first real dive with Grey Nurse sharks at Forster-Tuncurry on the mid-North coast of New South Wales. During our first dive we saw fifteen magnificent Grey Nurses, three wobbegongs and a group of ten Port Jackson sharks!!!
I took up diving to spend time with my two daughters, who have been keen divers for a number of years. I did the rescue course in case anything happened to my beautiful kids underwater. It was one of the best courses I've done.
Since then we have done the Diver Propulsion Vehicle course together and are preparing to visit Fiji and take in some of the coral reefs that abound in that part of the world. We have been given an introduction to the Dive Tropex outlet at the Sheraton Fiji and are looking forward to the warm waters of the Tropics.
Dive Safety is now one of my main concerns, as much for my own sake as my daughters, so I am happy to have found a web site that offers so much information, not just on that topic but so many others as well.
I hope to be able to forward some fun details of our Fiji vacation, till then ... happy diving. JOHN
