Our second expedition which we just completed was to the Florida Keys. While we were in the Keys we got certified as Open Water Divers. Me and Billy already had our Open Water Diver certification, so we got our advanced certification.
The first day of our expedition we set up camp in the pouring rain, which wasn't much fun.
The next day we drove to our camp sight which we stayed at for the rest of the expedition. While we were there we had much fun playing King of the Hill on a raft that the camp site provided.
Most of us had to watch an incredibly boring movie and had to take a test before we could dive.
Later during the expedition we went Scuba diving. I went 70 feet down on one of my dives. On that dive I saw a Green Moray Eel. On the other four dives I did, I saw numerous barracudas, many fish and even a stingray.
On our way back to base camp we stopped to spend the night at Billy's house. A lot of the other parents were there as well. While there we had a great dinner consisting of lobster, clams, steaks, and lots of other things. In the morning we had a delicious breakfast and continued driving back to base camp.
Hi Sam,
ReplyDeleteWell done on getting the next diving certificate. Don't think I would like to dive that deep. You guys sounded like you where treated well having that dinner and breakfast.
Thinking of you always
Love Sarah
Hey Sam!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the advanced certificate! Diving 70 feet sounds terrifying. That's farther than from the roof of your house to the basement. Consider me impressed!
All those sea creatures sound fascinating, please try not to get eaten by any of them.
Miss you,
Ali
