Me. That's who. Fortunately, it wasn't a slip of the feet flying out from under you, landing on your ass variety. It was a quick, catch your balance again slip. But really -- a banana peel? Perhaps it's to be expected in a place where trees are laden with fruit, and kids throw brooms at trees to knock the fruit down.
I'm having a blast here in Utila. Sometimes life seems painfully slow, because not a lot happens, but it's a lot of fun for the most part. I've now completed my Rescue Diver course, and I'm ready to begin Divemaster training. The rescue course was awesome; just like lifeguard training, but with scuba gear. My exam went well, I accidentally let someone bleed out (that mistake will now NEVER happen again), and my partner and I performed the fastest search and rescue our instructor has ever seen. Training is fun because you get to dive and look at pretty things, as well as challenge yourself physically and mentally.
Not a whole lot else to report from here, really. I've been so busy and tired from my rescue course that I haven't managed much other than eating, sleeping, studying, and diving. Now I have a few days until I start my Divemaster training on Monday. I think I'll go on a few dives, explore the island a little more, and do a lot of napping in hammocks.

Hey, Siobhan!
ReplyDeleteThis is awesome (you blogging and diving). If I ever end up in a sunken/sinking ship, I hope you save me.
Sounds like fun. Have you found another place to stay yet? Hammocks are nice but won't keep the rain off.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your exploring.
You go girl!
