Today I did my first ever scuba dive along with Kev's Mum. It was awesome! I was really nervous about it having had a 3 hr build up with a video followed by a question session and a practice in the resort pool! At one point I really thought I'd have to wimp out, as I was so scared that I wouldn't be able to breathe. My instructor assured me that once we got down under the water (about 12 metres) that my breathing would just come naturally as I'd be so consumed by what I was seeing: well, she was right. What an amazing experience? I saw sharks, octopus, jelly fish, turtles and even more beautiful fish. It was incredible just floating along under water with nature. I want to do it again! Kevin's Mum was also in absolute awe. We both felt quite sick on the boat as it took us out to the reef's edge, but coming back in was a breeze! When we got off the boat we could see stingrays in the water beside the jetty.
