Hello from Calgary, Canada

[Conrad]

Hi all
New to diving (Really New). I will be done my Theory and pool here in calgary in early april. Will be doing my Open Water dives in Cozumel May 2008. This will be my third trip to Cozumel. I did two dives there in Feb 2007, Six dives in Jan 2008. Joined the SUBA Mag forum to get a feel for issues and opinions in the SCUBA comunity. What I really mean is I'm hooked and plan to do alot of diving in the next couple years. As I said, I will be in Cozumel in May and plan on doing as much as I can there. Also going to Novia Scotia Canada in July and have a friend who is Experienced Diver there. So I am hoping to talk Him into taking me out LOL. Then West coast in the Fall. In between there are a lot of lakes here to practice in.

Welcome to the SMN Community Conrad. Cozumel should be quite the treat for you!

[Conrad]

Yes, I love Cozumel. Not into the party scene so cozumel suites me fine. Would like to try diving the cenotyes.

Hi Conrad,
Welcome to our little space on the web.
Good luck with your OW in cozumel - I'm sure you'll have a blast getting your certification.

Hi Conrad. I'm from Nova Scotia. You have great dive shops in Calgary!

[Conrad]

Where in NS r u? I wil be there for two weeks in july. Staying in Tatamagoushe (spelling ????) But will be in Glace Bay for part of the time. Hoping to do some diving there? Any suggested sites?

[seasnake]

I live in Sydney, right by Glace Bay, so give me and Scuba Smurf a shout when you get here. We have some excellent shore diving we can take you to around here.

[Conrad]

will be in touch

Well finally completed my classroom and pool dives ( work took me two weeks off schedule) Less then two weeks until cozumel. So I am back on track. Still going to Nova Scotia in July. Have a friend in Alaska taking me out in August and also have dives planned at the west coast of Canada in September. So things are right on track. I am excited and just wanted to post an update.
