The days started out be Sara and I argueing fiercely wether I should polish my sunglasses or not... I believed they needed to be polished...

I then went for the pool. The mood was down... We didn't talk.

After an hour or so I got bored.

So I suggested we took a diving course.
Sara was reluctant...

It was a 2 and a half day class, starting in the pool, and ending up in 4 open water dives. There would also be some theori.

Well I began to negotiate. Hours later we "agreed" to do it.

The negotiation was not over though...
Several Sara burst into tears and said she couldn't do it.

I had to manoeuvre between a minefield of accusations and and illtempered blaming.
I should be a negotiater for the FBI, because this was not easy!
But the next day, we were in the pool...

Early that morning we met up with our instructor and his assistant by the pool.

First off we had to do some drills with a snorkel.
Sara can swim pretty well, but she is not too fond of water, especially not open water...
I am a former swimmer at a competitive level, and I do spearfishing a lot, so I had no problems with the drill.

Sara performed like a champ, and got though the drills with flying colors.

Then we had to suit up, and get our scuba gear on.
All suited up and ready to jump in the pool, Sara had to pee... Figures...
