2012 Week 2

Today as we woke up, we all knew it was going to be a great day. Seeing as we needed to get to the Rhone crash sight as soon as possible, breakfast today was light and on the dock. We sunscreened up and were off to the dive sight. We arrived about thirty minutes later after a quick boat...

Today I think we woke up at the usual time. We left and ate breakfast at the marina and went inside the gift shop while we waited for the 2 boats to be ready. We went to the wreck of the Rhone for today's dive. The ship sank in the 1860's off the coast of Salt island, which...

Today I woke up at around 7:30, got dressed, walked to the commissary, and posted the last blog. I ran back to the cattle guard just in time to see the taxi come. I hopped on with my friends and we headed off to the marina. At the marina, there was food waiting for us to eat. We ate...

What a fantastic day in Virgin Gorda. For the first time this trip I woke to the soothing yet exciting, world renowned Spanish speaker, and the most fantastic basketball coach on the trip, Señor Nevitt. Today was a day packed full of water. There was never a period of 2 hours that we were not wet in some...

Today I woke up at around 7am to submit my blog post before breakfast. Instead of going to the usual place for breakfast, we went directly to the dock where the Dive BVI team had already set up a small breakfast consisting of banana bread, muffins, yogurt, and a few drinks. Even through it was it a lot of...

The fourth day at the BVI was a lot of fun. It was different than the other days we had experienced. We didn't meet up for breakfast at the Olde Yard but this time we met at the docking station beside the boats. We had breakfast near there and set off for a two tank dive that was planned.The...

Day 4, Today was an early dive. We woke up and immediately went down to the marina to get a start on the R.M.S. Rhone dive, which I was looking forward to second most out of the entire trip. We ate breakfast while we took the boat ride there. We split it into two dives- the bow and the stern,...

Great fourth say in the BVI. It was another early rise thanks to the wild roosters living nearby. Glen picked us up at 8:30 as usual, but took us strait to the dock this time. There, a light breakfast consisting of muffins and yogurt waited for us. We all sat and ate quickly, eager to board our boats. After...

Captain's Log - Star Date July 15, 2012 Today was fairly tiring but rewarding. We started off meeting as usual around 8:15 am and had breakfast at the boat. We had great muffins and yogurt reminding me of my quick breakfasts back home. Aboard the Sea Dragon, we ventured onto our dive site off the shore of Salt Island,...
