Today was my first experience at ocean underwater diving (scuba diving). I have to say that the experience has been one of the greatest moments in my life. I have seen and done a lot however the fulfillment of seeing natures gifts, is just astonishing. The life, colors, dangers and many other names I hope to add to this blog are just simply put incredible.
I do not think I have seen so many wonders in any one place at any one time.
I have found something new to challenge the Gypsy blood in me.
We dove at Osezaki, Japan. My Dive Instructor Mariko has logged over 4000 dives (She is part Hammerhead with the height of 4'5inches thanks Mariko). I saw about 30 species of life, hand fed fish and did not want to leave the ocean.
Temperature was 20-21c. My 5mm suit kept me warm with no trouble, keep in mind Mt. Fuji had snow on the top and the rest of my team wore Dry suits.
I have to remember this. Very cool, strange, and Japanese. The Dive shop was wild it had a pet Parrie dog as a mascot, I saw like 5 getto/grubby cats with snub tails. And everyone brought their dogs.
