One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In the Dominican Republic I went on an intermediate scuba dive as a first-time diver after 10 minutes of instruction for 45 minutes...after the first 20 I relaxed and started to enjoy the reef and the fish. The guide, who probably shouldn't have taken me on the dive, seemed impressed, probably that I didn't drown.
