I'm in love with HIM and I feel fine I'm so glad that HE'S my little BOY - Adjusted Beattles kinda day :)

Morning little bloggy, what stunning winter day it is here in Tassie.
The theme music for the day is by The Beatles 'I Feel Fine'. HERE

It took my little mumpkin a bit to get going today, he slept in a few hours after me which is always a little strange, (constantly checking) but I managed to tidy up a bit, have a shower, dressed and get breakfast ready before he'd even flinched. Its these simple little things (having a shower) you really learn to appreciate when you are in constant demand of a child. So I am already off to a great start! Thanks little mate! This is how Oscar sleeps..bum up head down..so cute.

On my walk this morning I took a few photos of my beach that I live by...and thinking about diving as I always do when assessing the water. Its perfect diving weather today a bit on the chilly side but that why dry suits were invented! Yes you can go diving 30 metres still wearing your cargo's and joy division tshirt, come to the surface and dry as a bone ready for 12dollar poached eggs & bacon with mushrooms on the side at your local Banjos. I brought one almost 3 years ago now, and have never used it. I found out I was pregnant not long after the exuberant purchase and it went into storage with my other bulky dive gear to make room for baby things! So I am extremely happy to report that my old (now) dive master friend Mr Jedi scallop master is offering to take me for a few shore dives to teach me how to use the suit properly and I can go deep with the big kids again! I even have a really crappy underwater digital camera so I should be able to put some crappy photos up...soon! :) Anyway this is the beach we will go for a shore dive off one weeknight. Right now, is my ideal water for a nice easy shore dive...mind you not much to see around this beach but sand, flat head, maybe a crab if I'm lucky but I'II be under water again and there is nothing in the world like it!



We only live a few steps away..aren't we lucky!

I took a shot at the point we walk around most mornings, the water was like glass on the other side of the river, too bad our beloved Mt Wellington was hiding at that moment.



Walking around I saw a little boat very close to shore with people diving! Funny that. I've seen them there before, but today I noticed they were hookah diving! That's when you have a long tube attached to an air compressor on the boat that supplies your air rather than wearing a scuba tank. I've heard commercial ab divers use them because its easier to move around ...tanks are bloody heavy on the surface and rather constricting, I would definitely like to try it someday.
It couldn't be more than 9 metres deep there if that! Can't help but wonder what they were up too...definitely not scallops or abalone, bottom samples maybe? teaching? drugs? ...my favourite theory is TREASURE!
Definitely diving for treasure.
