Finally, taken the plunge!

[Pontius]

Well, I have finally taken the plunge! My father taught with PADI while I was growing up and I had some problems with my ears at a young age. I am now 33 and have finally decided to take the Open Water class. This time, I had no problems at all! So, here I am to enjoy this new hobby! Hopefully, I can draw from others experiences on the best "cheap" places to go!!!

-Sincerely,
Pontius

welcome aboard. I was 31 when I finally got my cert, after many years of heming and hawing about it.

Hi and welcome
Cheap and diving don't quite seem to go together but you will have a great time.
