The Trifecta!

I have done 2 of my 3 dives for today. I started the morning off with my wreck dive on Salamanda which is the sunken cruise ship. A little while after that after dropping some people off and changing over equipment I did my deep dive and got down 28.5M which was kind of cool. Saw lots of neat fish and even got to see a reef shark!





After these two dives I had the rest of the day to screw around because my next dive is at night. Krystina and I decided today was a good day to go Jet Skiing. We hired the Jet Ski for 30 minutes which cost a small fortune but it was worth it. We ripped around the water at mach 5. I drove at first and succeeded in sufficiently scaring Krystina with my complete disregard for keeping the Jet Ski on the water. After we'd been out for about five minutes it started pouring rain and we got abused by the really heavy rain. It was suprising how painful the rain could be when it was coming down that hard and you were driving into it that fast. I made a point of maxing it out a few times just to see how fast it could go. But mostly I was trying to get as much air as possible off the waves or the wake from the Jet Ski. We eventually traded up after snapping some pictures. It was weird jumping into the ocean in the rain and the water being bathtub warm. It was warmed in the ocean than out during the rain. We switched back and forth and had a blast for the half hour we had the Jet Ski. It was tempting to hire it again but it's just too much money.



I am looking forward to my night dive in a few hours!
