The girls get certified!

We took a last-minute trip down to Rainbow River and Crystal River to get SCUBA certification for the girls. They passed all their pool and classroom work, but to be officially certified as divers, they had to do five dives. They did two in Rainbow River, where we saw many kinds of creatures like ALLIGATOR gar, swimming birds, turtles, purple worms and swam in hot springs bubbling out of the riverbed.

The next day we went to Crystal River and snorkeled with Manatees, then did a dive in a cavern teeming with fish.

The girls did very well and passed all their tests. We're very proud of them!
