Shocking Weather … So, Just Another Pool Day

Weather has been pretty shocking this whole week and sunday was no different. The weather report said it would be a crappy rainy day and it turned out to be 100% correct. When I got up this morning I decided that I would just hit the pools to get some laps in and go home and do some work (cause I have alot to do before I have to go overseas).

I am about to go overseas soon for business so I thought it might have been a good thing that it was raining and the ocean conditions were not that good. That way I don’t have the beautiful weather outside, on a sunday hounding me to get out of the house, to stop working on code, paperwork etc and to instead go diving 😛

Today I decided that I would just get (20 x 1min 10sec plus) dives in before I called it a day. Did a few 1:30’s (and there abouts) but decided not to push it to much because my buddy wasn’t around (Yeah, I know, I know …). I wanted to try a 2 minute + dive round the edges where the are some crabs, octopus and few other crustaceans but didn’t want to risk a samba all on my own. I have a feeling that I would still be OK at around the 2:00 minute mark but you just never know so all dives were well within my limits.

I don’t think I have ever taken any videos at the bottom of shelly beach pools, only above so I have added the video of the last dive I did whilst heading back to the beach to call it a day. There are a few small fishes and sea life at the pools so its not completely boring 🙂 You can also see my mate Alan swimming along the top doing his usual morning laps. All up, I think it was a 1:10 dive, starts when you hear the watch timmer go *beep* at about 0:13 and ends at about 1:23 – 1:24 just as my head emerges from the water and the breathe hold ends.
