The Florida Keys Project

Dana!

by Jill Smith

Good morning, Divers!

Three more sleeps until the Adventure Sports gang head out to the Florida Keys for some amazing diving.

I am very excited to tell you that Dana has graciously agreed to update us on this blog about her experiences in Florida, along with some pictures of her adventure.

Dana grew up in a family of avid scuba divers, lived in Australia for 5 years, and has traveled around south east Asia!  She will be working on achieving her PADI Advanced Open Water Certification, and start working towards her Divemaster! Dana's all time favourite animal is the manta ray, so hopefully she gets a chance to dive with them very soon.

Because I am not going to be with this fun group of happy divers (this time), I am very happy that I can live vicariously through Dana over the next week!  I'm sure some days she will be very tired, and we may have to wait until she has the energy, and stops having an awesome time for a moment to give us an update. 

So please check in often, and find out what this scuba bunny has been doing! 

I hope you have a wonderful time Dana - good luck with your Advanced certification.  Safe and happy diving!

Note to our Florida peeps:  If you wish to send me 4-6 of your favourite images per day (I just can't manage 500), I will add them to the "Florida Keys 2014" photo album on Flickr, so that you can share them with your fellow divers (and us sad, land locked folks at home can enjoy them too).   Your dive buddies can download pictures from the album if you do wish to share.  Up to you!

Send them to:  [email protected]

of course, there are no photos in there yet (save the one dummy one I used to create the album and get it started).  The rest is up to you!  :)

Safe travels!  Safe diving!  Have a great time!
