Sarah wasn't feeling 100% better yet, but they'd signed up a couple of weeks ago to learn how to SCUBA dive with Alex's Aquatic Adventures and nothing was going to stop them. They studied the manuals and watched the videos that gave a step by step explanation on how to SCUBA and emphasized the safety precautions.
There were two lessons on Friday and Saturday to certify them as SCUBA divers. They didn't have much leeway because they were leaving the following Tuesday.
Alex, they joked, is a grumpy Brit. He doesn't appear to like Hawaii much because of the high cost of living here. However, they would recommend him to anyone wanting to learn how to SCUBA dive. They said he is extremely qualified and is very careful of your safety. He's also quite reasonable!
Apparently they descended on a rope and learned how to clear their masks of water.
They learned how to breathe and not panic.
These photos were taken by Alex and posted for Jon and Sarah to see. They said they were really excited to see so many fish in the waters about 50 feet deep.
Alex didn't take a lot of fish photos. He also didn't want Sarah or Jon to take photos. They needed to concentrate on learning to SCUBA safely.
Jon and Sarah passed their written and underwater tests and are now certified divers.
They wanted Art and me to join them in this adventure, but we declined. I guess that's why we ended up in the hamster ball. Although the hamster ball adventure wasn't my cup of tea, I prefer being above water than below!
