I was so happy that I could be there and share this moment. It was wonderful just mingling around and talking with friends and (strangers) "friends just made" and listening to their comments and shared stories. The store is nicely stocked and the staff right on in readiness to help each person. Students were in for classes and some had just come back from a dive at the "Mermaid House" on the pennisula, and were excitedly sharing their dive with us. I eyeballed something in the showcase and though I am not a diver, I had Paul set aside for me, it is a little pendant of two diving tanks and I want to wear it in rememberance of my two youngest scuba divers Luke 13 and Ryan 10. I am hoping that there is room to get their names engraved. So if I never do put a tank on my back (which I rarely say NEVER) I will have two tanks hanging around my neck thus a reminder of the fun they had. I shared their love and excitement about this terrific sport they grew to love at such an early age, and I loved hearing their exciting stories. I'd love to hear more of your stories about your experiences with Aquasafaris...let's all help to keep in going and enjoy it for many years to come. Thank you!
