Perth, Australia

The land with the Tim Tam Slam, where "ta" means "thanks" and "tea" means "dinner".

I am now a PADI certified open water scuba diver, which basically means that I can breathe under 18 meters of water (60 feet) and do lots of drills without freaking out. The course consisted of 5 days of training; 1 day of classroom studies, 2 days diving in a pool, and 2 days diving in the ocean. I must admit my first diving experience was not all that visually amazing, but it was fun and challenging and I do look forward to visiting many new and virtually unseen parts of the world. I hear the diving on the East side of Aussieland is some of the best in the world. I will find out exactly what that means next week!
