HOLY CRAP MY PANTS!!!!!

Ok;

So we started today FREEZING, we've been sleeping in our car for the last two days. got up early to go on our SHARK TOUR!!!!!

2 Hours out to the Neptune Islands! Saw wild seals then went around the corner where the crew started to throw out bait for the sharks within five minutes there was one there, first group went in and not a lot happen, by the time the second group had gone I started to panic a little, danielle will at test to the fact that I was concerned that I wouldn't get to see sharks while I was actually in the cage. I did get to see them breech 2 or 3 times which was PRETTY AWESOME but when the second group went and we spent the whole time feeling bad for them I started to panic.

Third group goes and by the end I'm CRAZY JEALOUS, everything I wanted to happen with the shark diving happened to them. It bit the cage, it hit the cage with it's tail, swam around a lot, you know all the things that sharks do.

We're supposed to be up next but two people jump in front of us.

So the next group goes, EVEN BETTER than the last dive. Still not great but the shark did all of the things that sharks do with the biting and the swimming.

Our turn to go and right as we're getting ready the shark bits the cage so hard he closed the lid! WE'RE STILL NOT IN THE CAGE!@!@#$%^

so I'm like GET ME IN THIS CAGE!!!!! so they get me in the cage, and for like what seemed like a terrifying eternity I was a lone in the cage until SOMEONE finally got their ass in there (this probably took a whole 2 minutes I was just alone in water with a big shark and it wasn't even around I was just pretty much scared.) So everyone gets in and the shark is going CRAZY, it ate EVERY piece of bait that they threw in the water swam RIGHT UP TO THE CAGE, bit the Cage, Bit the BOAT, bit everything that it could bit. At one point it was so close to me I could almost touch its fin then realized that that would be incredibly stupid because I could potentially lose an arm. after the dive everyone said we had the best one, and almost the entire Highlights DVD that we purchased was for OUR DIVE. which is more by default than anything cause the guy only filmed like 2 of the other dives, but seriously dream come true, such an amazing expirience. Danielle is starving and now I have to feed her and then go drink manly beers since I've done such a manly thing all day!

OFF TO THE MANLY BEERS!

Love
