So Saturday morning was high time I put my gear back on, after six weeks out of the water.
It turned out the OW student had canceled, so just me and my buddy who seemed more than happy to do something cool instead of having to look after a student for once.
Usual place, usual conditions: nice, warm, but totally dark below -17 mts.
We made a plan to go and visit a bus which serves as the local version of a wreck at -16, then see and if I felt like it possibly go a bit deeper, maximum time 45 minutes to an hour or 50 bars.
We found the bus, got in, played around looking at the small fish (found a trout, first time ever), and then I felt fine and gave the sign, let's try a bit deeper.
We ended up at -26, turned around and made a nice, easy 49 minutes dive, had to stop when my buddy got cold (strange, I usually suffer from cold much more than he does).
We had planned on a second dive, but a big thunderstorm made us reconsider.
