Michelle's First Dive

This is my first open water dive. Grubby has always wanted me to dive with him, but I had a horriffic fear of the ocean and all the creatures in it. I have faced my fear, and now that I see what is really down there, it is not so scary... I did expect to see more fish than I did, but the scariest part of my dive was coming out of the water to see a very elderly man in a men's bikini, lol. We dove off the beach today near Marathi on the island of Crete, Greece. The water here is too salty for sharks. I saw lots of pottery, anchors, rocks, grass, and little critters...worms, snails, etc. Now I want to get certified so I can legally dive in the US. :o) This is the video compilation of still pictures and video that Grubby shot for me.

That looked like so much fun! Carl has talked about us taking diving lessons but I'll be shocked if it ever actually happens. Thank you for sharing with me.
Hugs,
