2013 Week 2

I chose to take marine biology because I have an interest in biology but mostly because I have never SCUBA dived and am eager to try. I do not have any diving experience other than the four hour class that I took yesterday as the first forth of my certification. That was really fun and I am excited for the...

Woke up with adventure on my mind Rolled up to the airport before the sun hit the sky Met up with the men for others from Dallas And then we headed off to the tropical palace Miami to San Juan to Tortola then Gorda, Those were the connecting flights in order Three planes and a boat, it took to arrive At guavaberry, the mosquito paradise.

I joined marine biology so i could learn more about the life i see under the water. I have done more than 25 dives and have registered over 18 hours underwater. I am certified in open water and peak performance buoyancy. I am looking forward to studying the marine life inthe BVI.

1. I thought that it would be a fun, unique experience, and I enjoy learning about biology. 2. I am an Open Water Certified Diver with a Peak Performance Buoyancy Specialty, but I have not been on any ocean dives yet. 3. I am really looking forward to the night dive and seeing diverse species of aquatic life.

Today, we woke up and boarded our taxi to go to breakfast and our last classroom lesson. In the class, we got a quick fish I.D. Lesson and we got debriefed on our week. We were then split up into our boat groups and we left for our first dive. We had a 15 minute ride out to the...

Last night I went to bed around 10-10:30 and woke up around 7 today. Finally getting 8 hours of sleep was very necessary and made me feel so much more refreshed. After I packed, my cabin and I walked down to the entrance where we met everyone and got a ride from the taxi to the marina for breakfast....

I picked marine biology this summer for a getaway vacation away from the family. Although I have no previous diving experience, I believe it would be fun. The thing I am looking forward to the most is feeling weightless in the water.
