Advanced Diver!!

So a few days on Utila turned into two weeks!! Vita and I liked diving so much that we took a second advanced couse, which means that were are now certified to dive up to 100ft under water! I have 12 dives under my belt uncluding 3 or 4 deep dives (past 70ft). We made good friends with our dive instuctor and got into lots of trouble! Imagine the two of us under water doing flip, summer-saults, up-side-down mischeif etc... We love to observe the under water coral, fish etc. but our real love is the weightless experience and try to take advantage of that as much as we can. Thus with all of our dive masters we were refered to as ¨circus divers¨... I consider that a complement!!!

Carlee Ann surprised us a few days before were were going to meet up on the main land and we got to take her out on the boat and snorket with her. We went looking for whale sharks but didn´t see any that day, we did get to play with a beautiful dolphin family though. On our first day of Advanced diving Vita and I did get the oppurtunity to see a whale shark though! We were chaseing boils, where fish freak out above a whale shark and just flip around at the surface of the water. It is how we identify where the whale sharks are. We jumped in a few times on top of the boils but didn´t see anything, finally i jumped in a looked straight down with my snorkel mask. RIGHT BELOW ME was a huge whale shark!! I don´t know how deep it was but later my friends told me that he dove down and looked straight into his eye!! I freaked out, a little, and started swimming away becasue all I could think about was if this guy comes up even a little I´ll be riding him!! It was really amazing. Not to mention later that day while diving I got to swim with a turtle!!!

Ok so, to catch up to now- we are now on the main land near Lago Yojoa. Tomorrow we are taking a bunch of busses to cross the border into Nicaragua. From there we are going to seach around for another language school, maybe starting Monday. Then play around in Nicaragua till Anna comes in late May where we will have two weeks to travel to Costa Rica!! Sorry still no pictures but I´ll try to borrow my friends camera and put some of hers later!
