The (Intro) Dive Experience - Part I

Being a self-confessed beach-bunny/water-baby, I always jump at the chance to be at sea. From swimming, snorkeling, surfing - you name it, I've done it. One thing I have never tried, though, was scuba diving. 

I've been curious of scuba diving ever since my cousin kept putting "scuba diver" in the "What is your ambition" portion of my slum book. I've tried a bit of snorkeling as a child and found it immensely fascinating and enjoyable - there were dozens of colorful fishes and forests of seaweed to explore under the water! Granted, I never went deeper than 3 feet, but it was something I appreciated all the same.

My chance at diving came when a dear friend, who was a seasoned diver herself, offered us a chance to try an Intro Dive, a sort-of basic lesson and 'first taste' of what it's like to go scuba diving, via Scuba One.
