Scuba!

So Tuesday was Elizabeth, Kymri, and my first day as official PADI divers! We got officially certified under water at Bird Island and were rocking and rolling after that and off to explore! On our first dive we saw lots of reef fish and of course sea lions! They were so fun to watch in the water playing and checking us out. Glen, our istructor, actually did get a chance to pet one, until another one came at him baring his teeth.. Time to end the dive! Second dive was truely one of the best experiences of my life. After Dr. C almsot descended right on top of a scorpion fish, Kymri and I decided to follow him and Krya and explore closer to the island. At one point of our exploration I stopped and looked around and was surrounded by almost thirty sea lions. Having all those sea lions around me was honestly one of the best experiences of my life. Also, it was very humbling, to be surrounded by all these animals that could take two bites and kill me but didn't, they just wanted to see who I was. The animals exist so harmoniously down there, I just wish everyone who tries to disrupt their habitat could see this harmony all the animals have a learn something from it, and learn to leave it alone.
