Haha if you were with us this dive you could so tell that its been 3 months since we have dives...Well lets see.
We began out trip off of tierra verde marina and every thing was great.. First dive in a few months and dad and I were siked..And man let me tell you, one we go into the gulf it was crazy..The swells were a good 8 to 9 ft...And in our 24ft boat..Not fun..Haha....
Eventually after to getting to the tanks...We were greeted by 2 other dive boats..Both smaller than ours! Crazy..But this is when it went wrong..
Trying to put BC's on tanks and regs on tanks is very very hard with 8ft swells...And i was getting sick..But eventually my dad and I got it....So im starting to put my wetsuit on...But oh snap..Its been months since ive been diving and IT DOESNT EVEN FIT..Yeah water temps 70 degrees...Haha and my dads is fine..What a joke huh? So im there in my skin and boots getting ready to dive..And eventually I giant stride in...
BRRRRRRRRRR...It was freezing..Haha..And there i am bobbing in 8 ft swells waitying for my dad to get in and im freeezing my butt off...So he gets in and we get our compass heading to the boat and such..And now were ready to go down..AND OH NO...WE FORGOT TO PUT OUR WEIGHTS ON!!...So i get back in the boat..Pull all my gear back in and put the weights on and then back in..Same for my dad...Now were ready to dive..
I decend to about 10 ft and my dads having ear problems but eventually got it.And we hit the bottom at about 30 ft..And i couldnt even see my dad at first..Starttleled me a bit..Viz was 5ft if that..So i think we started our heading north and bam..Guess what we saw??SAND..and more SAND..During our 45 min dive..we saw 1 piece of concrete and MORE SAND...'
Soi we decend after about 45 min and i come up with a numb left leg haha...But i make the swim back in the 8 ft waves..And then as im coming up the ladder...I throw up 3 times..I just could not take it...Haha...Yeah...And then you can imagine me the ride back....
I guess you could say it was a bad dive day...But i just love it so much..I thought it was fun...Haha..
Thanks
