Cozumel, Mexico
Today we planned in our final port, Cozumel, Mexico. We've been to Cozumel so many times that we don't usually even get off the ship. But since we were on Norwegian they do not really have the activities to keep you occupied during the day in port. So off we all got. I had a tour that I had to be at the end of the pier by 9:50 am so I walked off the ship with my mother, Corey and the kids. They went shopping and I went on the tour.
Introduction to Scuba Diving. Basically it was scuba diving for dummies. Instructions like breath through the tub, clear your ears as you go down, and let us do the rest. Which worked for me since I'd never been scuba diving before. I did not realize how heavy those tanks are out of the water. Once you are in the water no problem, but before it felt like I was carrying Gabe around on my back. I will admit it took me a little while to get my breathing regulated. I would say after about five minutes I realized that I was breathing ok and decided it was time to go deeper. We never really went that far from shore. Saw a bunch of fish and reefs. We went to about 25 feet deep. Which for the first time I thought was pretty good. I would do another dive if I have time. I need to do three more in the next year to get certified. We'll see how that goes.
The kids had a blast walking around. Corey found some good bargains. And I got to go diving. A pretty good day in port all around.
