    Lac Joly (Caribou)

    Dove NE side of the lake (large side). Did a 15min surface swim to get there. Pascal was flying while I had trouble keeping up and overheated. We dropped to 40ft. Continued across the lake where we went to 50 ft and eventually lost the visual of the bottom. After resurfacing, noticed we had headed in the wrong direction and surface swam it. Got across the little island and Pascal started looking for a mask he had dropped a year back or so. HE ACTUALLY FOUND IT! :) ISSUES: 1) Screwed up the decent somehow and all 3 of us ended up back at the surface (miscommunication with the thumbs-up signal) 2) While Pascal was holding the flag and buddy line, he and I got tangled a few times with the rope (15 min to untangle one of the times on surface) 3) NAV was off so we swam across on the surface. 4) Tried for another dive but lesser air made it too difficult to descend once again. Christiane pulled me down to 15' and I then changed my mind since I was dizzy from water in 1 ear and spinning around underwater to untangle. 5) Surface swim back was a painful 45 min of nearly cramping and overheating. Pascal even overheated a little. 6) A plane started landing and then saw our flag and rerouted. I was glad to have the flag!

    2023-05-10 Mexique Cozumel
    La Francesa

    Using shorty for the 1st 2 dives, but then, just a t-shirt. 8lbs seemed ok but a little light considering aluminum tanks but perfect (or even a little heavy) w/o shorty. beautiful reef with channels and swim thrus that we had to nearly crawl thru. Nelly scratched her head on a coral and some dude kicked up so much sand that everything went dark. saw a few big Barracuda just sitting around. saw a large turtle but from que far so not great. med fish density. Nelly was weighed too light so we both popped out too quickly at the safety stop. Using new Ollis L.T.S. BCD for the 1st time. it's not as neutral as the Mares I had since there's no space 4 trim weights. will have to adapt a trim weight system, I naturally end up nearly vertical when I stop finning. Used old Cannon G12 camera and it worked fine. somehow did not find the dead pixel I had b4 :). pics with flash still have 2 much backscatter. would need a mount and separate Flash.

    Coral Gardens

    Decent spot, Coral in good health. Took my 3rd Dramamine just b4 the dice but puked my guts out after the dive but felt a touch better afterwards. Feeling sick for at least 4hrs after. Other group saw a turtle. We saw a weird looking a spotted Ray, a flat worn and a few more Scorpion fish.
