Diver's Notes

This was a dive of firsts:
Fresh water dive
7mm wetsuit, including hood
Dive in Europe
DIN Valve fitting
Use BAR units
Dive with my new gear

Most exciting was the first dive in fresh water, a completely different ecosystem. The bottom rocky and branchy.

We saw quite a few perch (local dish also), some shrimp and local scupltures that have been installed for the enjoyment of the diving community.

I went in with 13 lbs and found myself quite heavy so I struggled the first few minutes to find neutral buoyancy but managed to do it. next time I will go in with 11 lbs
