550代Posted Mon: 11/2018My husband and I were on a trip together and tried diving for the first time since we were over 50 years old. I am a regular swimmer at the pool, so I was confident in my swimming ability, but I was a little nervous about diving with a tank on my back. The dive guide was very attentive from the very beginning, and by the time we dived, my nerves had eased and I was looking forward to the experience. When we actually dove in, I was amazed at how beautiful the ocean was and how many fish there were. I never thought I would be able to see tropical fish so close! The dive lasted about 30 minutes net. The time passed so quickly. It was also very nice that my husband and I could enjoy sightseeing in Taketomi Island in the afternoon. While eating dinner that night, I wondered if I could get a diving license at my age. I was totally addicted to diving. Thank you very much for your careful guidance.
