Dor and I open water cert

April 12th Philippines

Best Day EVER! Became Open Water Certified!

At 8am I had to be at Fun & Sun to do my written test. It was open book, which I was happy about, even though I think I knew almost all the answers. Dor did a great job getting my educated. I was happy to find out I passed! I hate tests. I still had to go one one last dive to complete my certification. So for the fun part of the lessons we took a boat to The Deep Slope. This dive was mostly fun. I didn’t have to do any test underwater, that I remember.When we got to the surface I was pretty happy, I really enjoyed scuba diving. 

Can you believe a couple days I was having a panic attack and now I was Officially Open Water Certified!

I didn’t think my day could get better but Johan, Albin, Rebecca, and I made reservations at Bakhaw Kiwi for dinner. A lot of locals that we had became friends with recommended it to us. A local woman makes all the food from scratch. She is an amazing cook! No joke.  Her pumpkin soup is to die for! some other things I would recommend is her chicken cordon bleu, and chicken curry. I was so full that I couldn’t finish my food. I felt so bad. I didn’t have a place for left overs so I had to just leave it. I wish we ate here every night. A big tip you need to make reservations and try to order in advance.

Our conversation at the dinner table was mostly me trying to convince them to stay on the island a little longer so I could complete my advance certification with Dor. They explained they want to see more of the Philippines and if we had more time. I agreed that it was time to move to another island; but I was sad that it was my last night in Malapascua IsIand. BEST DAY EVERY!

I put the links to the dive shop and the restaurant if you get a chance to go you wont regret it!

    You have made some decent points there. I checked on the internet to learn more about the issue and found most people will go along with
    your views on this web site. I really like it when folks
    come together and share ideas. Great blog, continue the good work!
    Its like you learn my thoughts! You appear to grasp a
    lot about this, like you wrote the e book
    in it or something. I think that you can do with a few percent to power the message house a bit, but

    fantastic read. I’ll certainly be back. http://foxnews.org
