It's official, my trip next month is close enough that I can actually start getting excited about it! On Monday was the meeting for the trip, to get our itinerary, know things to bring, get a general idea of what to expect, and most importantly what weapons to bring to avoid the drug warlords. I'm really not worried about the warlords because first of all, I've seen Mythbusters and bullets can't do any damage to the body through more than just a few feet of water and I plan on being much deeper. Second, even when on land, I run faster then Becca.
It looks like it's going to be a blast. I'm most excited about a small side trip where the two guides are going to make a special trip to the southern side of the island for deeper dive at what is called the Devil's Throat. It really sounds like a sweet dive where it takes you through a tunnel and will easily be the deepest dive to date for me. Be prepared for the story between Becca and I as I can already see it now where each of us tries to swim away with who will go the deepest (I'm already planning on sticking my arm in the sand if I have to, just to beat her at something). When they first brought that side adventure up, my comment to them, immediately count the two of us in! So, it's possible it would only be the four of us going, which would be extra sweet.
My Birthday seems to come earlier and earlier every year. Yesterday, with my gift from my secret admirers, I ordered my underwater housing for my video camera. I decided with the smaller still camera, the video camera makes the most sense to try to capture this experience. I'm hoping to get it soon, give it some trial runs in the pool before we leave, and be ready to go so that I can share the Devil's Throat at 130ft!
A hair over four weeks away and counting down!
