This is me on vacation, part I.
by sam on 04/19/2004I apologize in advance if I slur a few words – I’ve had a few frozen margaritas before sitting down to compose.
When I finally got on the plane at the Belize City airport yesterday, it turned out pretty cool – the pilot made me sit up front in the co-pilot’s seat, and I got to take some really great pictures. Of course, I can’t link to any of them, because I forgot the darn USB cable to connect my camera to my computer. So I’ll just have to wait until I get home to download all my photos at once.
My room is beautiful, the people here are really nice, and, as you can probably tell from my grammar, the drinks are pretty free-flowing.
I had my first scuba class today. It’s a good thing I went over when I did this morning (at 8:30), because the day 1 class started at 9. More evidence that I’m a psychic? Anyway, today was all classroom/video stuff, but tomorrow we get to go in the swimming pool and learn how to use the equipment. Getting my fat ass fitted for a wetsuit is something I’m really looking forward to…but it’ll be worth it if I can get through this whole thing. Also not looking forward to the test tomorrow afternoon. I should be studying, but instead, yeah, I’m writing this entry after three frozen margs. It’s multiple choice. And hey, if I can pass the bar exam, I can pass the darn scuba exam…
