This week was a nearly complete week of diving, yeeesss!!
After a few weeks with just a couple of days or none, this week not diving on Monday and Tuesday with my teaching duties and then the rest of the week diving
On Wendsday to begin the day Patrick, Alice and me went to the pool to do Patrick Scuba Tune Up and later Peter a London Instructor, Pete, Alice, Patrick and me went for a couple of dives to Yellow Mountain, nice and quiet dives where we could see trumpet fish, parrot fish, white breams,… as usual, as said nice and quiet.
On Thursday was my first time driving the jumpy to Abades for a couple of shore dives with Melissa and Frankie that stayed on the beach, Alice leading, Patrick, me and Cat that is English woman doing her Open Water Referals to finish her Open Water Diver (OWD), she already had done the theory and confined dives in England and came to finish her OWD. There was much visibility and so we could see some arrow crabs, a common octopus and usual fish on her OWD.
On the afternoon Patrick and me could see Alice with Derek Scuba Tune Up and the rest of the day just quiet day doing the daily jobs and at the finishing of the day Pete, Patrick, Melissa, Alice and Cat went for a Beer to Celebrate Cat’s OWD.
On Friday we had a couple of boat dives on Yellow Mountain to finish Cat’s OWD, doing her OWR3 and 4. The visibility was much better than the day before and we all had a nice dive enjoying to see octopus, trumpetfish, parrotfish, blue-fin Damselfish, ornate wrasse, golden sponges and loads of other fish.
On Saturday we began the day in the pool with Alison Scuba Diver and later Pete, Cat, Alice, Patrick and me went for a couple of nice dives on Yellow Mountain, in the first dive Pete lead the dive to Alien Rock and we where lucky to see loads of Barracuda near the surface, some octopus, close to the Garden Eel and some other fishes, I couldn’t completely enjoy that dive as my mask was terrible leaking more than half of the dive. The second Alice lead the dive and was Patrick Boat dive for his Advanced Diver and could see some arrow crabs, a black moray eel and an octopus.
Nice dives, some of those you won’t forget in a long time.
On Sunday we went to Yellow Mountain and did a couple of dives with Yim, William and Thomas, they where from England, Yim was a school headmaster and we enjoying going around and could see cuttlefish, octopus, some wide eyed flounders and the usual neighbours ;)
Really nice week with a new intern here. Just beginning to know Patrick but look like will make a good friendship along our internship. Still working on my rescue, but it goes too slowly, with the holydays, more things on the to be done list. So lets see how does next weeks go.
And I think this is it for now,
Take care and good luck,
Adal aka Gary aka Gary Pineapple ;)
