Despite dogs barking randomly in the middle of the night, I slept pretty well. I finally get to go diving today. A full week after I logged off from work. Most Americans would have called one week off a vacation. I just arrived at my destination.
This is one of those countries where the plumbing isn’t great. So we can’t flush the toilet paper. It goes in a little bin on the side.
I am powering through my book, The Bee Sting. At first it was ok. It was told from the daughter’s point of view and the prose was well written. Then it went to the brother’s point of view with misspelled text messages, etc. Now I am in the vapid mother’s point of view and there is no punctuation and it is all over the map. I get it, that this is supposed to be in her mind and how it works but I am not enjoying it as a reader. I read some online reviews and people said that this is the longest part. Ugh.
I started watching Yellowstone. Finally.
I love to be in on around and especially Under water. Today is the day. Yes.
I tried some ginger tea during the surface interval. It was ok. I love ginger, but there is something about tea that I don’t love.
I came up feeling a little nauseous from the second dive. I am drinking a lot of water and plan on having a banana for lunch. I tried a bit of a hamburger, but I mostly just ate the greens and the bun.
I was the only diver for the afternoon and the night dive. At dinner, I sat with an Italian woman, Piera who is traveling alone and was on my first two dives. She skipped the second two because her ears were hurting her. We had delicious mussles that were pretty messy and some good pasta. Dessert was a fruit cup which I was glad to have.
I was sooo tired by the time I crawled into bed.
It was a pretty spectacular day for nudis. I am so glad to be diving.
