8m - 39 min - Dived with T&O Duiksport
First open water dive of the Open Water Diver course. Fundive without excersises, juist getting the feel of the open water. My trainer-buddy told a instructor-trainee present that this first dive was almost like a fundive for him as well. Yeah!

Second dive of the Open Water Diver Course. On the bottom we find bream and large pike-perches. Easy dive with the first excesises. Fin pivot with inflator and oral inflation, emergency stop with octopus, clearing mask, etc. Trainer Renee: "Are you sure you haven't dived before? As fast as you are, we don't see that too often."

Fourth and last dive of the Open Water Diver course: passed! Navigating 20 cycles to and fro on the surface and below. After that an attempt to go somewhat deeper with the four of us. Co-trainee Rajiv has to bail out due to his ears hurting from the pressure. He and John ascent, while I finish the dive with Chris.
