Today I went scuba diving in Olympic Bay, some 30 km south of Katerini, with Mount Olympus dominating the view in the distance.
The
dive master said I did really well, and I actually helped him continue
the dive by sticking to protocol when my diving partner started having
panic attacks and was resurfacing every 30 seconds.
Because
other divers were late I had a lot of time at my disposal to talk to
Alex, the diving instructor, and get a lot more theory than the normal
introductory lesson. I learned a lot of new things about pressure,
depth sickness and the way the human body behaves during a dive.
The
dive itself wasn't very impressive. First of all, we couldn't go out
too far because of the aforementioned panic attacks people were having.
Second, I've confirmed what I saw while snorkeling yesterday, the sea
life isn't very impressive around these parts. That is, except for the
big blue jellyfish you can see in the enclosed picture.
