While sorting through photos for yesterdays post,
I ran across these.
I ran across these.
Yes, that is a shark swimming right in front of us,oh yeah, and look over your shoulder Nancy
My first (and only) shark dive. Bahamas, 1999 with ex-husband Jon.
Yes, I was thinking WTF am I doing ?
But, in a good WTF am I doing way.
Jon is a good diver, I was just getting certified. I think this was my 3rd or 4th dive. It was awesome. I still can recall the feeling of being so freaked and excited all at the same time.
I have the dive on CD. It was about 50 minutes.
The dive master came down (about 65 feet ) with chum and those bad boys came swimming right in. I never could count how many are recorded on the CD, they move too fast. I think about 25-30, 6-12 foot Caribbean Reef Shark. Yes they bumped into us, knocked the regulator out of my mouth, and hit us with their fins.
Then there was Jon, trying to pet them!
Beautiful coral and fish. Photos never capture the true experience. I think Jon was kissing me here or wait, probably trying to get my air. He is 6'7" YES.HE.IS. and he would go through his air tank in half the time I would. Really, it was great fun and I hope to do more diving.... Sandi? ( My sister also SCUBA dives, her husband was on this shark dive too.)
