Diving the Reef




So...I took an introductory dive on the Great Barrier Reef. (There must be easier places to learn to scuba dive!) The smiley shot of me giving the "ok" sign was taken prior to the dive. Once my instructor let the air out of my suit and the weight belt pulled me under, I wasn't sure if I was having fun or not. Thoughts of the old t.v. show "Seahunt" raced through my mind and visions of sharks and the bends danced through my head. (We were only 20 feet down.) Taking pictures of the coral and sea life kept me focused. It really was an amazing experience, and, in the end, I was glad I made the dive.
