Week 5, Day 25

Today we did a dive down to 144 feet. At this depth the visibility is very poor and you vocie sounds like Donald Duck. At the same time you can feel the effect of narcosis. Its like being slightly drunk but you know what you are doing. During out 10 minutes a the bottom we had put two wire rope clips across a piece of wire to form a loop. It was straight forward however, one aspect I enjoyed was the R.O.V.'s that were following us during the whole operation.
It reminded me a lot of the movie 'batteries not included'... as this 'robot' was moving around us with lights and cameras.

With an underwater camera!!! The Unterwater Centre has a camera that we can use sometimes when completing a task.

How perfect for blogging! I bet your lovely wife called the Centre ahead of time and made sure they had one on hand with the blog in mind =) She is just efficient like that! I am enjoying this immensely.
