SCUBA Diving

Bridget has got into SCUBA diving in a big way, and invited us along to a pool in Petone one Wednesday night to try it out. It was heaps of fun (anything with so many gadgets has to be) and we both had a great time. Once I got over the initial weirdness of breathing through the regulator I was away...although I never did get the hang of keeping my buoyancy right. If you take in a big breath of air you start floating up, let it all out and you hit the bottom!

We both got a bit nauseous after a while, it may have been due to breathing air out of a can, but probably had more to do with the rollie pollies and handstands we were doing on the bottom of the pool!

People just look odd in SCUBA gear:
