Diving

I spend the last weekend out on the Barrier reef doing my advanced open water dive course. Over the 3 days on the reef I do 11 dives incluleding 2 night dives and 2 deep dives.
I got to see all kinds of things like turtles and all kinds of fish, from small anenomy clownfish (Nemo) to massive barracudas to bumphead parrotfish, and stingrays, moray eels. During one of the night dives I even got to dive with the sharks, there were 4-5 grey reef sharks circling the dive boat, and I saw a few more white tip reef sharks on other dives.
I'm going to be going back out diving again this next week to do my rescue dive course. It involves 1 day first aid training, 1 day classroom theory and practice in the pool, then 3 more days out on the boat to do more diving.
