Day 7 -- Refresher dive day
Friday 2/27/2004
Our plan today was to get a refresher dive plus one exploration dive in time for more complicated dives tomorrow. We ate breakfast with everyone at the bungalow. Erik was going to do his second open water dive in the morning. Karl came with us as well, but he had to stay on the boat. Both our dives (myself, Lilli and Isabella) were around Ilet de Pigeon. It was the usual getting adjusted to things. Erik's dive had also been nice. When we got back to shore we ate lunch at a new covered deck they had built since the last time we came over. I think we mistook the time for the second dive by 1/2 hour, because the boat left at 12:30PM rather than gathering everyone at that time. We hurried to get all of our things in order. The second dive was also very nice and we were a bit more free to move around compared to the first dive. Erik snorkeled around the boat, but was reminded by one of the instructors to not dive below the surface just following a regular dive. Visibility was very good.

We came back to the bungalows around 3PM, ate a late lunch and then hung around the bungalows. Bengt and Lotta had done a beach day and had gone by McDonalds on the way home. We stayed at the bungalows and just took it easy after that. We had Columbo spiced beef stew for dinner. The meat should have cooked a bit longer.
