Carolyn’s first open water dives today and our first dives on little corn. Our first dive was out to Stanley’s Reef, shallow dive, (as were both dives today, max depth 41 and 30 feet respectively). Had an issue with my underwater flash, it looks like the little slave flooded and is toast. I was able to come up with a work around, but it may need a little tweaking before I am really happy. First dive we saw a sting ray with a fish that was hitching a ride along top. The second dive was a mix of different fish, puffers, small sting ray, conch and of course some lobster.
The day started out by having the power shut off at 5:00 AM. So it was an early morning. Found out later that is the usual time. I will have to adjust my sleep schedule accordingly.
Had breakfast at the hotel, we all had French toast, which was really good, but tasted a bit like bananas. We are thinking that it might have been banana bread it was made with, different but really good. The coffee was excellent, something to look forwarded to with breakfast. Six bucks for breakfast, including coffee, pretty good deal.
We were packed early and decided to leave @ 3:30 instead of 4. Good choice. We left the first time and got about 6 blocks from home and remembered that Meghan and I had not taken or Durkrol. So once we got that done we were on the road, well for 3 blocks, then Meghan remembered she had not packed a towel. Back home again. Ok we are on the road now, it’s 4:00 our planned departure time.
