Day Twenty-eight

My last work day! Went over to Norman island with Jason and Neil for a group of 3 certified divers and 2 Open Water referrals. Turns out that one of the CD's hasn't dived in 20 years and one of the O/W's hasn't got all the correct paperwork so they end up doing DSD's on Norman beach with another young guy who is on the same boat. His mom also came along for the ride when we went diving. Neil was hoping that I'd be able to do all the dives when we were headed over there but as plans changed when we arrived he had to lead their first dive. We went to the Indians and is was a little choppy - so much so that the father of the family group slipped off the back step and his tank slammed onto it - missing my toes by cm's!!! Crikey - that would have great wouldn't it? Trying to travel home alone with broken toes - not good.

A couple of the group decided they'd like to do a second dive so I did manage to get wet today. Yeah - my last dive in the BVI and it was at Ring Dove Rock. There was quite a strong current too so that was a bit of a challenge for the new diver. Still he did really well.

Went to the chinese as well for dinner with a bunch of peeps - never been there before (opposite the Mexican!) and it was pretty good. Apparently there is another chinese towards or even past Road Town which is better but I never got there during my month. That's the thing about Tortola - you have to have some transport!! Sat and had some drinks outside the shop though first as not everyone could make the meal.
