I went on a sweet scuba trip this quarter. We had our share of unfortunate circumstances, but it all worked out alright!

We drove out Wednesday afternoon, but a huge wreck in the mountain passes kept us from arriving at Rosario until 1:30 in the morning! We slept in our cabins until late morning and then started our training. Lots of talking and then time to gear up! Sadly, there were not enough wetsuits in my size, so we went to a nearby dive shop to rent. They didn't have enough either. Thus, I ended up wearing a small woman's suit. It didn't quite fit right and after about 20 minutes it flat out hurt, but I did look pretty sexy :)

The second day was a lot better - more fish, plants, and we hit 50ft instead of just 20 from the first day. I even got to borrow a fancy underwater camera (eventually I get those pictures)! Now that it is warm and sunny outside, it's easy to forget that it was snowing as we got into the frigid water.

Anyways, I loved the experience and it only gets better from here - better visibility, warmer water, more wildlife, etc.

Yeah, seeing you in that wet suit made me feel your pain, and I don't even have any youknows.
