So, even if the water is warm, you'll get cold a lot faster. I don't like cold water either... I feel like I can't breath even when I know I can.<br />And... actually, I think it would be awesome if everyone got certified, and we all went on awesome adventures.

I tried snorkling at Lake Tahoe and it was not fun at all. I really hope someday when I make it to hawaii the water is warm enough that I don't have a panic attack but I'm guessing it's nothing like Tahoe so I should be good. But unfortunately I think the cold water thing may keep me from crashing your scubaCarolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12901409841934013091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2521256816974606164.post-21179686457656039842012-11-11T22:45:10.665-07:002012-11-11T22:45:10.665-07:00I support aqua Jen, she seems like she'd be fu...I support aqua Jen, she seems like she'd be fun to hang out with as long as I don't blind fold her or anything, but why would i?Zackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11844453419891655826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2521256816974606164.post-12384140844699216042012-11-11T21:41:03.022-07:002012-11-11T21:41:03.022-07:00To clear the mask underwater, you push on the top ...To clear the mask underwater, you push on the top of the mask, and then blow out your nose. <br /><br />Blowing out the regulator is very similar to the snorkel, except the regulator also has a button that will do it for you if you want to do it that way.<br /><br />AND I still think you need to get certified too, so we can go on adventures together.jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14191688082941672114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2521256816974606164.post-55858190021693106162012-11-11T20:10:26.357-07:002012-11-11T20:10:26.357-07:00I totally need to learn how to clear the mask unde...I totally need to learn how to clear the mask underwater. I've obviously never been diving, but even in snorkeling I get water in the mask. I always have to come up to clear it out. <br /><br />I do know how to blow out the snorkel, but I don't know if that's the same as blowing out the regulator.<br /><br />I'm glad you're having fun. That sounds super cool.Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10357398682419756851noreply@blogger.com
