First Class

   WOW!! What an amazing class! I got there early, so I was able to watch a recent trip to Fiji. Very nice. Then once everyone got there we did the basic book review and go over anything that we didnt understand.
    It was easy to understand and when we finally got in the pool (which didn't take too long) It was like being a kid in the candy store. First we went over how to set up the tank. It looked confusing at first because of all the hoses and stuff hanging down, but after doing it the first time it comes naturally.
   We snorkeled first around the pool to get used to the snorkel and then we was able to get our tanks on. I had a small leak in my own BCD but nothing too bad. I left it so that it can be fixed.
   Once we went over how to breath the air under water we went around the pool several times to get used to having the gear on.  

   We went over taking the mouth piece out and reinserting it into the mouth, and how to retrieve it if it gets accidentally yanked out. Then we went over sharing air with a buddy. It was so great. The manual really prepared me for what I was going to be doing.
   After our pool time we rinsed our gear and set our gear up against the wall in preparation for our next class.
   Once home, I couldn't sleep. I kept thinking about the lessons and what I needed to review before the next class.  Must be why they give you a day off before the next class,lol
