Its easy when you know how. Day 2 today and it was spent going through the divemaster manual. Remember I was having trouble with ´halftimes´well I had it explained by Simon today and it is all starting to make sense.
This is my first post since I started properly at Simply Diving here in Torremolinos. Yesterday was all about meeting Simon the owner/instructor and getting aquainted with the shop and various do´s and don´ts. You might have to excuse my typing, this is a spainsh keyboard and just starting to find where some of the keys haev moved to.
Really great operation which comes across as really well run and professional. I think I have made a good choice and I am looking forward to getting in the water. I believe we are going to try a new dive site tomorrow - wreck diving.
Managed to find a few good supermarkets yesterday as well, which means I am now starting to eat properly. Last nights gourmet meal - salad with blue cheese dressing and four cheese pasta with a sprinkle of emmental. All washed down with a couple of cerveza and some 1€ Dom Simon vino tintos. Lingo is going slowly but as you can see the important stuff is sinking in - namely beer!
Missing Amanda terribly but it is now less than a month until she comes out to join me. Hopefully she will get a chance to dive with me and can grade me on how I am doing.
Sun is just starting to come out which is needed as it can have a bit of a chill without it it. Not UK chilly but still might need a small cardy!
Back to the books for me now so catch up soon.

Great update! Now I feel hungry too ;)
ReplyDeleteThe School sounds good and overall you sound as if you are settling in well albeit without Amanda. I am sure the time will go swiftly for both of you since you are both pretty busy at the moment. Look forward to your next post!

Lovely stuff mate! Wish i was there with you...cheese based eats and beer!!! Think you're just trying to make me jealous!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you are settling in nicely mate so great to hear. Just sinking my 3rd beer myself, we've been busy decorating so beer is very much appreciated. Hope the wreck dive goes well, that must be an awesome sight to see! Have to say I'm getting very jealous as well, hopefully you might get some underwater photo's of the wreck, that would be cool!
