Scuba Diving
I am a PADI certified Open Water Diver!
I have just had the best weekend, completing my open water dives at Bass Lake, 45 minutes outside of Johannesburg. My instructor, Eddie, was great, as were the rest of my classmates. Despite the early morning departures from Greg's house, it was one of the most enjoyable weekends I've had since my return to Jo'burg.
Scuba diving is quite popular in South Africa, and there are lots of places to dive, both in lakes throughout the country and on the coast (mainly in the Indian Ocean). I will have lots of places to choose from during my last 6 weeks here.
As I plan out my next dive, I'm keen to take the Advanced Open Water Diver Course to gain a bit more experience before heading out to the ocean. I'm interested in the Wreck Diving and Night Diving electives, and promise to post my picture promptly if I take the Underwater Photography elective!
Speaking of photography, I'm slowly posting more photos, so keep checking my online photo album.

Wow Jana, how fun! I want to hear all about your first ocean dive. Chris and I always talk about getting certified, but I always chicken out. Be careful and avoid the sharks!
Miss ya, love ya,
Kathryn
Kath: DO IT!!
It's great; you won't regret it. And if you certify, we'll have an excuse to meet in the Caribbean on vacation!
Say hello to Chris for me.
Miss ya and love ya too!
