After reciently completing a open water certification and loving it I signed up for a advanced open water class with a rescue course aswell!. I told my husband who is a small boat fisherman how wonderful it was/is and turned his way of thinking round to seeing the sea bed from the bottom and not just with a rod and line. He was quite reserved about this, however once he took his first breath under water I can't get him out now.
Any way, he said now he has experienced this new world he wished that he had done it years ago ( he's 33 ). This brought up the conversation of why not give the kids a chance to try it.
They are 13, 11 and 9. The course director of the shop we use was brilliant with them, they went last night for the first time to the pool and 'tried' it. I had some reservations about them being able to do it as when both myself and my husband started we had problems with mask removal and water in the nose ( over come now ).
What were we worrying about?.
They were in the pool with us for two minutes and they were away. We never seen them for the next hour, I don't think the surfaced more than twice!!!!.
We are taking the two older girls today to sign up for their course and the little one is quite upset and angry with us because we have told him he can only snorkal untill he is 10.
I've had no peace this morning at all with 3 kids demanding to know when there going next.
This board has a LOT to answer for. If we hadn't found it we would probably have a lot more money in the bank.
Thank you's all for opening up a whole new world to us.
