ZENOBIA DIVE or my best day II

in #travel6 years ago

The previous time I talked about the best day of the year. This post is a continuation of the story of a dive on a ferry Zenobia.
Diving is very exciting. Plunged into a transparent abyss, you can experience a terrific sense of flight. You will have the opportunity to contemplate the magnificent colors of underwater landscapes, to see the life of a variety of fish. And if you're lucky, you'll be able to meet sea turtles, and even whales!

Usually a day is built of two dives. Not everyone can master three or more. Yes, that's probably not the point.

Our trip to Zenobia also consisted of two dives. It seemed to me that for the first time the guide was looking to us. Probably, this is normal. After all, diving on sunken ships requires more attention and concentration. Mario told us that despite the seeming simplicity of the object, unfortunately, accidents happen every year. Sometimes divers lose orientation within the ferry and panic.

But let's not talk about sad things. Let's talk about food! Usually the ship has fresh sea fish with rice. On Zenobia, for some reason, served a chicken. General respect was caused by a brazier with a chain drive. The cook does not need to turn the skewers, they are rotated by the electric drive!

A guy of Asian appearance was engaged in cooking. He deftly moved around the deck, dragging the skewers with the legs from the kitchen to the barbecue grill. His confident and professional image simply guaranteed a chic dinner.

But unfortunately, we have to report that he does not know how to cook a chicken. And it's amazing.
How can you not cope with absolutely fresh meat ?! However, the fact was on the face. By the way, about the faces. Some characters were quite attractive ...

Agree, she might well be the queen of Zenobia.

After diving certified divers dive novices. For them, there is a program with a funny name, Bubblemakers, that is, bubble makers. The face of the royal appearance turned out to be a bubble-maker. Several people were engaged in the immersion of the regal person.

Episode two "Why so cold?"

Episode three "And the abyss of the sea swallowed her up"

Mario was distracted by the contemplation of the bubble-makers. He began the ritual before the second dive. The ritual calls a briefing. In the picture, the guide shows the route and focuses on important points.

We again pull wet suits, we spit in masks, we throw on shoulders the heavy waistcoats with cylinders. With loud flops from the side, one by one the divers are flopping about the water. I, too, take a step forward from the side. My plume looks no worse than the rest! We are in the water. On its surface you feel like an awkward buoy. The water is taken in thin jumps into the jumpsuit. Mario shows a gesture - we sink! We let air out of the vests. Begins the descent. I pour water in my ears, so as not to be bathed in a purge, - I'm so used to it. The blue water is just heartbreaking. If you try to write it in watercolor, it will be impossible to choose such a rich blue color.

Again we are aboard a drowned ferry. This time we are followed by a whole herd of fish. After some time I understand the reason for our popularity - Mario has a chicken leg in his hands. He hands it to me. Fish begin to tear the meat to pieces. some try to bite off pieces of meat from my brush.

Meet this fish is a lionfish. A closer acquaintance with her is fraught with a fatal outcome.

Again, everything flew by like a minute. Remains a five-minute stop before going out.

The dives are completed. We put my equipment in fresh water and put it in boxes.

If you add a little alcohol to the nitrogen in your blood, then the sensations become indescribable. We eat a little whiskey with cola. Mood for five points!
