The real trip report is here...
But here's a list of the sillies- I'm sure I'll forget something. Room to remind, people!
1. Shore dive #1, I put my skin on inside out. Excuse? I ALWAYS hang/store my skin inside out. So I turned it right side out to put it on and didn't check until AFTER I'd pulled my 7 mil wet suit on overtop of it. Apparently, however, this time, I had turned it right side out when I packed it. So turning it right side out was actually turning it inside out.
2. Boat dive #1, I put my skin on backwards. Excuse? The skin was still wet from the previous day and I just wanted to get the cold, wet process of putting the lower half of my wet suit on over with! I found leg holes and put my legs in them. Again, I didn't check until AFTER I'd pulled on my 7 mil wet suit. You can dive with your skin on backwards. It's not an entanglement hazard. Now, your snorkel must be on facing forward!
3. I changed from my shorts into my skin/wet suit. Everything was on right side out and front side forward. But I set my shorts down during the process and forgot about them. They fell into the water- the boat crew recovered them. The $20 bill and credit card that were in the pockets were still there when I came up from the dive and found out what had happened
4. Steve hums (just checking to see if you're reading this).
5. I posted on SB and played scrabble online once the ferry terminal got their wifi working again. Now that's a vacation...
Okay, it's someone else's turn now (until I remember something else to post here).
