SF 2 years ago

And I now live in San Francisco! I can start thinking about scuba diving lessons. But I just have to start thinking about them because I have to get my savings back up to where it was when I moved here.



Closer 2 years ago

So I am now moving out to San Francisco and will totally be able to cage dive with Great Whites as soon as I can afford to. I might just ask the people who run the place if I work for free for them like on weekends for a while, would they let me go. I am moving to the exact place that has the largest concentration of Great Whites in North America. How fucking awesome is that?

I am now flirting online with this awesome guy in San Francisco.



Saturday night 3 years ago

Saturday night I had two dreams that included sharks.

I think I’m obsessed.



Jaws 4 years ago

Saw Jaws tonight on the big screen in Bryant Park. And I STILL want to go cage diving!!!



In the USA!!!!!!! 4 years ago

Found it!!!

Cage diving with Great Whites off the coast of San Francisco for $875. I can always find cheap flights to CA. AND I’ve stayed in the youth hostel in San Fran and it is pretty decent. So accommodation would cost next to nothing!!! Wow looks like the completion of this goal is closer than I thought!



And I am such an idiot 4 years ago

To the right of all the comments are advertisments for cage diving with sharks…

Maybe on my 43 things list I should have “be more observant” :)



I found out!!! 4 years ago

Libby J told me about two places in South Africa that do it:

www.sharkafrica.co.za
www.sharkcagediving.net

And she also told me that they have it in Australia and Mexico.

They aren’t that expensive but airfair is a killer. So Step Two is be able to afford it which goes right back to…get a better job.



A child of Jaws 4 years ago

I was a child of Jaws. I have a great fear yet great facination with sharks. This would be the ultimate test of my mettle. If I did this I would feel like I could do anything. And one day I will. Step one: find out if there is anyplace that would let someone who is not a oceanographer or a shark researcher do this.
