I am back from Belize and am still in love with scuba diving. I loved everything about it EXCEPT getting back on the boat! I dreaded it.
I swear I would come back to the hotel with big honking bruises on my legs and arms from being tossed around like a rag doll when trying to get on the boat. Although it would give me a source of pride like I had really done something even though I only got beat up by a boat . I really hate those back platforms with the swinging ladders. I always think I'm gonna get conked over the head when approaching it.
I also can't shake the initial feeling when first descending of 'What the heck are you doing?! You can't breathe down here!' It passes quickly but I get the feeling that will never go away no matter how experienced I get.
Aside from decomp sickness ..what and where are your battle scars..be it from sea life or monster boats?
