Carins & Pro Dive the Great Barrier Reef Moin moin,
still so exaggerated in the snow with you?
So in Cairns life in the hostel was really relaxing. Air-conditioned rooms has really something as opposed to life in the car. But our car is ready, thanks to new battery and fan belt, hopefully for the Outback!
The highlight, however, and in Cairns at all was the diving! Leon and I are now internationally recognized Open Water Diver :-) It all started with a theory of teaching and learning movies. In between, one is then bound with full equipment in a 4-meter deep pool and under water has made some exercises such as blowing out a flooded mask or his buddy to supply air. That was funny, but they would finally open in the ocean!
had given they consist only of a final test of 50 questions, which I have constructed all 47 points.
So you can start after 2 days Therory and pool at last! We place on 11 with an approximately 32-strong group. And it started right with a breakfast spend. The food on the boat was Delightfully compared to our other Standardproggramm with pasta or baked beans. On the boat saw the whole looks a bit different. The first day we had our first two dives with our teacher, because you have to have to test the theory, including 4 dives with an instructor, where you repeat the exercises from the pool. So we as teachers in our group plus 6 to the bottom in 11 feet deep set and exercises done. However, we probably know this rumgetaucht within 30 yards of the boat and since we already came against the first shark. Just Delightfully! The feeling of being so deep under water and what you can see everything! Indescribable .. In the afternoon, we had another free time that we have, for example, filled with snorkeling:)
first evening I did have a game of poker and won a few extra coins.
Day 2 began on the boat the morning at 6:30 with a morning dive and then 1a breakfast. After breakfast, then a dive and we were certifizierte Open Water Diver! That is our third dive of the day, Leon and I have alone conquered. We also have the first time our underwater camera taken away, we have gemieten us and trying cool underwater shots get added. Was funny! And again something completely different, even if you keep the orientation must
ne Leon ;-) and its most important remaining air in mind. In fact, if at 18 meters depth so rumtaucht and stay out of the air is far too dangerous to appear in a train. For this reason, it always appears in the buddy system, which satisfy at least a couple, so that we get in an emergency by his buddy air. If he deserves it:-D night came again the next highlight, so as we were at dinner and a trainer came in and said sometimes the deck is at the end of the boat as sharks swim behind the boat around. I'm not sure why, but behind our boat has always been a lot of fish have just as relaxed, but this time there were actually 1.5 - 2 meters large sharks. So, yes, everything was cool and we could take pictures, but all of us knew very well that for 10 minutes we have our briefing the night dive and 20 minutes later we jump into it. Already a queasy feeling .. were
As we then use our flashlight in the water, first we saw no more sharks. On our way to the coral, but we have lots of new fish or starfish seen that you can not see during the day. Our instructors were also aware of the sleeping place of giant turtles their tanks honestly a diameter of just over one meter had. Unbelievable! In between we have all put on the ground and the torch to our Brustgedrueckt so it is completely dark around us.
Now you could beat with his hands through the water and it began to sparkle .. something to do with plankton, repays cool:) Back to the boat, we have held six of us on an iron rod under the boat and our teacher has an empty water bottle messing around to annoy the sharks to attract and. It did not take long and we already have 3 orbits of these sharks. Really really weird feeling ... We all still had our flashlight on it do not pay attention to the sharks to shine in the eyes So only the abdomen, so we see them at least, otherwise it would be Stockduster. All this, unfortunately without a camera .. how have you noticed was the night dive again with our teachers:) But this was a thing of the last dive with him. After the dive gabs delicious cake and then a round of poker. So our daily routine always looked something like this:
rising, with the sunrise to dive into the water jump, breakfast, dive, cakes, lunch, dive, cake, dinner-diving, cakes, poker and schlafen.Alles natural .. with acute Weather Can you get used to it!
On the last day we have had until noon three dives, in which Leon and I are sometimes completely vertaucht have:-D, we have seen in addition to countless colorful fish, turtles, shells and sharks. Unique marine life easy! After lunch, we drove three hours back to Cairns and in the evening we had a course meeting at a club. Then they said goodbye to the cool force and from Cairns, so Leon gets his flight from Townsville to Sydney and then from Sydney to Frankfurt. So it was said last night in an Oettinger goodbye to Frank and Leon Leon .. come visit me but repays to Australia, so I can present you with the splendor of Tange :-)
Frank and I are so on time in the car, jetting We will finally equal to the outback! Before that, water containers, jerry cans and Essensvorraete now, who knows what happened ... and sometimes we see in the Outback or the phone connection, internet connection is so .. We will try to find for one to two months for a job, perhaps in a gas station in the middle of nowhere. So can that be communicating the coming weeks not really with the rest of the world ..
Schoenen Gruss and we'll see when I turn what may be hearing from me ..
