Burnt Legs
Again. I swear I put sunscreen on, but I figure it must have washed off in the water. But went out for scuba this morning. The first dive was deep, so I stayed with my instructor (a 50 something guy originally from New Hampshire named Bob Clark) around 30 feet. Had problems with my ears, but it was fun to watch the fishes. I think I'll get over my fish in water issue. They were neat, just like in Finding Nemo. Except not talking. More like an IMAX movie, with even nausea from the the surf up topside tweaking my stomach.
Second dive spot was shallower. It took me even longer to get down, but then swum around on the bottom. I had a problem sinking. I think it was my swimming reflexes not working. Balance and all different on the bottom with lots of gear then when I'm puttering around in a pool. I twitch to much. At least my instructor is nice about it. I dive again tomorrow morning, then have time to get rid of excess nitrogen in the system before I fly. Not sure what I'll do tomorrow afternoon or Tuesday. Maybe stop burning myself.
