Thankfully the winds eventually died down, much to the relief of my new bunch of students who’d heard talk of the cancelled diving and winds earlier, so were concerned about their course. In fact in total contrast, the seas are now glassy smooth, and looking out over the bay, it is sooo flat, I can see the Ras Mohammed cliffs reflected in the sea below them. We had a good week in the end, resulting in three open water divers, one scuba diver and one who had whilst not mastering the whole caboodle, had certainly reached new heights (or rather depths) that she had never thought possible. I also had my first fun dive in 10 months! Woo hoo! We did a little drift from Ras Bob to Nasrani which was totally awesome. This was the first time I had just jumped on a boat and been the only instructor fun diving, so just tagged along with the group doing my own thing, nice n slow, nice n shallow. I have decided to change the way I guide this dive forever, as it really is not worth going below 20m on this one at all, it is stunning in the shallows. And come safety stop time, I just hung around on the plateau of corals struck by the colours, pinks, purples, greens and blues just surrounding me at all angles, really very, very pretty. I must fun dive more often, as you get so distracted with looking for stuff for the guests to see, or checking for guests (!) that you can miss so much. The only downside was that I didn’t have the distraction of the guests to take my mind of the fact that I was dying for a pee!!! DiveBunnie Home
