I came into Tulear for the day today because I'm not diving and just figured I'd come get some stuff done here. We fit a record 40 people in the taxi-brousse today, I'm surprised I got here at all.
I dove twice yesterday and twice the day before. Lucy and I were dive buddies yesterday and the first one we did a treasure hunt and the visibility was over 12 meters so all in all it was probably my best dive. The second diver yesterday my air gauge started jumping around with each of my breathes (down with every inhale and back up with my exhales). It's not supposed to move so that dive was cut short but no worries. I get slightly sea sick under the water since my body is just completely abnormal so I didn't mind coming up. The current was super strong too and I was exhausted.
The past four dives have been fun dives because our dive instructor, Teschna, and her boyfriend Morgan decided not to finish their contracts here and left ReefDoctor on Monday. I really like both of them and it is really sad to me that people can't just get along. Our new dive instructor gets here September 2nd and I'm scared no one will be as good for me as Tesch. Her and Morgan both successfully got me through a panic attack each so I got realyl comfortable with them in the water. The only positive thing is hopefully everyone left at ReefDoctor will hopefully be happy now and stop talking behind each other's back and the tension will be gone.
I'm finally at the point here where I feel at home here and can't imagine going home or being anywhere else. I'm almost nervous to come home. There's more I could write about English and Kids Club but I need to respond to the few emails people are writing me :( Hope everyone is well, I might come back to Tulear Saturday for a farewell dinner so until then,
Alex
