Great Dive Destinations

Not long after that we were married and convinced me that I would love diving.  I took a rather extensive PADI course while we lived in Colorado but I refused to get my certification in a dark, cold lake in the mountins! )

We ended up visiting my parents who were living on a sailboat off of St. John and I was certified in the crystal blue waters of the Caribbean!
