(And Ohio! That will be a change!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oahuscuba-update-thank-you-for-the-advice#post-1004491 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 22:59:38 +0000 Gaylene 1004491@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those pictures are fabulous! So cool that getting to know people on a fashion website can be such a big help in planning the perfect vacation. Fashion and scuba diving tips from the same place--who would have thought it was possible. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oahuscuba-update-thank-you-for-the-advice#post-1004478 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 22:37:51 +0000 ClaraT 1004478@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><span>About a month ago I asked for Oahu/scuba<br /> tips (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/scuba-advice-generaloahu-advice">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....ahu-advice</a>)<br /> in advance of a (then) upcoming trip. Well, we just got back, and the trip was<br /> fabulous in every way. <b>Thank you so much</b><br /> to glory, lyn*, alaskagirl, goldenpig, vivi and rebekah for sharing their<br /> experiences and giving me tips and advice. I felt so prepared when I actually<br /> dove.</span></p> <p>The recommendations about breathing slowly<br /> and purposely relaxing myself were key. Scuba certification has been a goal of<br /> my oldest son since he did a report on Jacques Cousteau in 5th<br /> grade. He is going off to college this week (to Ohio! From California!) so this<br /> was a last adventure for us before life changes in a big way.</p> <p><span>We <b>loved</b> diving. We saw turtles and<br /> an eel and too many colorful fish to count. It was like a dream come true for<br /> both of us. We had other adventures, too: ate great food (again, thanks for the<br /> recs); watched the sunset at Sunset Beach; hiked Diamond Head and Waimea<br /> Valley; </span>snorkeled in Hanauma Bay<br /> (and elsewhere); ate Aoki shaved ice (Matsumoto’s line was so long!); explored<br /> Pearl Harbor (powerful); visited Pali lookout and Laie Point; and yes, even<br /> relaxed some.</p> <p>Here is one scuba<br /> photo and one at Laie Point with my younger boy (eyes closed in every single<br /> photo). I mostly wore ‘gear’ (= boardshorts + swimsuit) all day everyday, so no<br /> good fashion shots. One t-shirt purchase from the shop I dove with (Deep<br /> Ecology Dive); I’m wearing it here. The last photo is from Pali lookout.</p>
