Scuba Diving

Cozumel Mexico was our first super-fun trip of the summer. We went for 10 days of fun filled adventure with our little family and Shane's dad and his wife. The goal of the trip was for me to learn how to scuba dive, which I did, and it was awesome! For all of you out there that don't know how to scuba dive it is time to learn. If you want to feel the sensation of flying, but don't want that pesky free-fall rush then scuba diving is for you. It was the most peaceful, quiet, yet adventurous sensation ever. It is my current happy place (a place where I go in my mind when the phone is ringing, kids screaming, dinner burning, etc, etc) bringing back the memory helps me feel sane. We made many ocean dwelling friends, namely turtles, which we saw a ton of. I also spotted a 5 foot long Nurse Shark, which was awesome because it was my first real dive after being certified, and I was with Shane who prides himself in spotting wildlife anywhere and everywhere we go above and below water, so me spotting the shark gave me bragging rights for the rest of the trip. It was a wonderful adventure. We will be going back, and very soon.
