Brendan surprised me with a trip to Tulum, Mexico to learn how to scuba dive! We stayed at Underworld Tulum with our friends, the owners, Claire and Laney Vogel. We started our diving adventure in Tulum in a beautiful cenote just outside of town. It was very shallow and clear - perfect for our first day and introduction to scuba diving! On day 2 we dove in a mangrove cenote - a little bit deeper and not quite as clear but amazing and very beautiful! By day 2 both of us were pretty tired and thinking that this might be a little bit harder than we had thought it would be!!
On Day 3 in the morning we dove in the ocean but it was really windy and choppy and Laney was uncomfortable with doing another dive in those conditions so we drove out into the jungle and found a remote cenote that was gorgeous - right out of a movie! It was even a little deeper and darker and we had the most difficult dives of our training but we made it through!
On Day 4 we drove up to Playa del Carmen and did 2 open water dives on the reef! It was amazing and we saw so many beautiful fish. I only wish that we had more time to dive in those conditions but unfortunately it was time to pack up and head back home to the kids! I hope that we get to use our new diving skills sometime soon!!
