20 miles we head into Fort Lauderdale and our little trip is done and we're
gonna reassess and hopefully have a game plan yeah
we'll see we'll see what happens here all exciting this cat could be ours
yeah well you know we've been talking in there potential where we might find this catamaran so
John went to plot some people and
there's some advisors or some of that we're gonna see it'll kind of deal with you make
let's see what John should be coming back tomorrow no the next day and it will sit to have a sit-down
before we fly back out we'll see what happens if it works out I'm going to run around the boat
naked you already know I know we feel I want to jump in the water naked there that's a good
one in the Bahamas where I can see the bottom that was the end of our little trip we got clip so back
to John and made our way to California this time with a new plan the plan was to purchase Calypso
the bottom let all the air out
we're back in California during the time the deal is getting worked out as far as purchasing calypso
we've decided to get scuba certified the new boat has a compressor on board we plan on using it
yeah we had no idea how involved this would be better get serious there it is
shoot boom converse and pass never thought I'd be taking a class with my good-looking husband
over there do that we just went through and we did our little class for I don't even know what that
was why divers dive with an enriched air online basically the beginning yeah hey Dee Patti so we
got a little divers log Jeremiah signed us up for the class that you can do okay it educates
you to do it all over the world correct you can diagnose for diving with enriched air so we're
gonna be able to do not just air but enriched air and also so we just in the class so this
is the first step really for the whole process we're about to go to a classroom environment
and then we're going to a pool and then we do to open water dives for our certification yes
lots of fun we got just a couple things appear we love it and obviously we're gonna get more
excited I'm happy you're here cuz the whole time I'm just thinking about how I don't want to do
this cuz I'm terrified of the wall fine so if it wasn't for you I probably gonna pass on the way to
the dive class actually the pool the community pool it all has to begin somewhere and a began
with him and now we're starting off with final because I told my shoulder and I'm about to put
on all this gear and I can barely put the shirt over my head so this'll be great no super excited
we finally got the class portion over with for the most part and we're headed to the pool it's like
a hundred degrees out so that'll be a lot of fun putting on our gear I'm looking forward to that
and yeah we're gonna hop in the water and learn some stuff before next weekend when we get to go
into the Pacific Ocean twice once on Saturday once on Sunday and then hopefully we'll be certified a
feeling over there it's really hot out it should be nice to in a pool yeah no everywhere what sir
yes do on the wetsuit the Bahamas and stuff we won't have to wear one but here it's obviously
cold learning a lot like different millimeters for different water temperatures and of course
here at seven millimeter for the Pacific so our thing is seven millimeters thick very thick hard
to get on in and out but um all is good looking forward to it I have a massive fear not of diving
of the water what's in the water so I'm hoping that this helps me with my fear and I'm just
gonna try to do my best to get through it I've had this view of my whole life so hopefully this helps
like this there you go
we got in the pool and completed the first day it was more fun than I thought it'd be but we had
a few issues first the Rena gear was difficult to use and we didn't like how the group classes
moved so quickly so we decided to get some of our own gear and sign up for private classes myself
into it but here we go we are scuba diving we've always wanted to explore the underworld that we
float up so we're gonna do it finally I think it's 2 or 3 years 3 years later we're actually
doing it we started with group classes and I've actually written a couple blog posts on that we
have now switched to private classes the reason why we switched was our gear so now we have all
this gear and we aren't even certified but we're getting certified over the next three days that's
when our pilot private classes start I have done between like 12 and 16 hours of online schooling
ports so I actually know what everything is are you ready for this I'm pretty stoked myself my
BCD this thing's awesome the reason that we picked this is because of a really cool few feature that
it has you can take the weight pockets off put a belt on which will make it easier to use different
weights whether you're in cold or warm water I'm sure I will learn many more features of it that
I love later on my fins fin socks if you've ever tried to put a wetsuit on these really
helped because you're literally peeling like your self into it it's crazy mask and your snorkel so
I can't let go black and white as you can see this is my regulator first stage second stage I
know you're impressed I'm impressed too this is the piece that signals my dive computer this is
the m2 by scubapro I have watched every single youtube video on it to learn how to use it it's
crazy it's like a whole new world inside there but it hopes up to a heart rate monitor and we
work out a lot so that a really cool feature with that our gloves booties and then Jeremiah has all
the same stuff except for he got his wetsuit because he went into extreme panic mode when
he had to put on the 7 mil so they told him if he bought his own they up sold them I think he
could wear a 3 mil in the pool and diving me I'm just gonna tough it out and deal with the panic
attacks joking it's been a lot of fun we've gotten a lot of training because we did start
with group classes and now we switch to private so the more I do the more comfortable I am with
it if you've been following for a while it's my number one fear and hopefully I conquer it
everything tomorrow we've completed all the steps for the pool classes we wanted to get
in and just play around a bit feel it out and get as much underwater time as we can before
heading to the Pacific I'm still getting the hang of setting up my gear but practice makes perfect
