Hi all.
Here in Guadeloupe (French Caribbean) on a vacation, decided to try diving. Did a "baptême plongée," literally a baptismal dive (no religion involved!) It was a fantastic experience. I initially had some panic, because in its natural state, the human body isn't meant to breathe underwater, so I felt my airway shut down. Luckily the diving instructor was very patient with me and we got through that bit of anxiety.
The only issue I had from that point on, was that the mask wasn't fitted properly to my face, so water kept coming into my eyes. But other than that, it was a marvelous experience. I loved the experience of seeing underwater.
And the entire team at TropicalSub in Deshaies was amazing. No, not an advertisement for them, I have no relation to them. I'm just amazed by the whole new world they allowed me to discover.
I plan on coming back here to continue my education. It was an exceptional experience!
