In December we ran a course in the friendly city, or rather the windy city.
We thoroughly enjoyed the indoor Olympic sized swimming pool, as well as the heated diving pool. Gloria at the entrance always greets you with a friendly face and Twice, the life guard runs the Newton Park pool with such pride. No wonder, this pool is the venue of choice for Freediving and swimming nationals. Kylee Nel from Moonsong Magic Tails, brought some mermaid tails with to play in. We even had the South African Freediving Men’s record holder, Gletwyn Rubidge, join in with eloquence & for some glamour we had Lindi Eksteen, an under water model in a tail too. We seemed to attract a little attention from the local swimmers.
The sea was her usual self in the Eastern Cape, completely unpredictable. So we had to wait for a gap in the weather between gale force winds and big swell. Eventually, we found a decent day, in PE terms, with not too much wind, just a little swell. We went out with Wildside Divers, at Noordhoek. We were driven to the beach on Horris, the wooden rebuilt bakkie, who has a face painted on in front & a silicone dolphin on the roof. A very rustic drive which adds to the Wildside character and charm. We were taken out to sea by Morven Maclean , on the Blue Pearl. A rubber duck in mint condition- clearly dearly loved. Once out at sea, the water was a pleasant 17 degrees with about 5m visibility, which it not bad for PE. Actually quite refreshing and great to be back in the Indian Ocean. Some of the girls (Stacey & Kylee) decided the fish were hungry (sea sick), while the rest of us were able to practice depth training and rescues and Jaques Wuis qualified as a NAUI freediver. At the end of the day, it was great fun. A course and trip to remembered by all.
Thank you to everyone who joined! We had a blast.
