Diver's Notes

This was my first open ocean dive after doing my drills.

It was an easy swim about but most people bolted to the surface at some point.

The worst bit was that walk down the pier, I swear it was a kilometre long.

After the exertion of the pool dives I was ready to faint into the ocean rather than take a giant step.

Had a large BCD
