Learning the Texas Girls to Dive
The seaplane makes a reel smooth landing in the water off of Walker's Cay and taxies through the harbor where there must be 75 million dollers worth of boats a moored, and up the ramp to the little customs and immigration shack. When theys get off the plane they see Brenda a waiting for them with her golf cart. She can't talk to them till they is done with immigration.
After being passport checked and a quick peek at theys luggage, theys are entered into the Bahamas. Bubba lernt a trick to not get yous suitcase looked though from a friend, Henry Jackson, in Waycross, GA, it is to leave a set of dirty underbritches right on the top. Works every time, nobody wants to search through a pair of Bubba's underbritches.
Brenda says that Gary and Barry is out on the boat but will be back soon, then she hugs them and is introduced to the pretty Texas ladies. She takes them to the hotel and they is checked in. They arrange to meet for lunch in half a hour down by the marina. The girls tell the hotel man that everything for both rooms is to be on theys Platinum American Express card.
Clem axes the girls if theys ready to take theys written exams? They hand him the computer printed knowledge reviews from the CD thing Bubba sent them in Texas. They say they want to take them right after lunch and a little review by Clem. That's fine, Clem tells em. They walk down the hill from the hotel to the marina and look at the boats then head over to the little restaurant where Gary and Brenda is a waiting at a table.
Everybody is reel hungry so theys start with a bowl of fresh conch chowder and sum conch fritters to share around the table. A cracked conch sandwich follows this for the guys and all the gals have a cheeseburger with fries. They had read about this place in the Cheeseburger in Paradise web site (www.fdu.com/cburger.htm). Gary and Brenda welcome the gals and tell em all about this place in paradise. They learn sum of the history of this place and about sum of the rich and famous guests what has vacationed and fished and dived there. Then along comes Philip, a reel good looking tall man in his 30's with Rastafarian looking dreadlocks in his hair.
The ladies get theys review and take the quizzes and final exam. They score perfect on every test. Bubba be empressed.
Now its time for the first pool session. Barry has brung tanks and lead up to the saltwater cement pond in a golf cart and is waiting to watch Bubba and Clem learn them ladies to scuber dive. The girls come a strolling over to the pool and Bubba and Barry nearly falls in the water cause theys dressed in really tiny bikinis and they are so beautiful its scary. They put on theys dive skins and put theys equipment on the side of the pool and jump in the warm salt water.
Bubba is gonna teach modules 1,2 and 3 and Clem will do mod 4 and 5 tomorrow after theys first two open water dives. The girls take to scuber diving like ducks to a mud hole. They have no difficulty with mask clearing and regulater removal and put back in, pin fivoting is a snap. All the other skills are just as easy for them. Bubba swears that they have been diving fer years, they that good. Barry be emprssed too. After about 3 hours in the cement pond they head back to the rooms to shower up and meet back at the fresh water cement pond to sit and talk and sip on sum special island kinda drank. Just another day in paradise... Bubba wonders what the poor folk in Alabama be doing today?
There are a lot of peoples on the island from the big sport fishing boats. Barry and Phillip are teaching a SSI dive class to a group of them in the pool now. They run into sum friends of the Sorysota, FL, scuba man from Jacksonville, FL. They got a reel nice boat a called Pipe Dreams down in the marina. He used to own plants what made PVC Pipe, hence the name of the boat. Bud and Carol is wonderful folks.
Its time for supper and theys go to the beautiful eating room and sit at a table with Brenda and Gary. Bubba orders him a shrimps cocktail and a bowl of conch chowder to start followed by a salad and a see feed platter. The girls have a shrimps cocktail and a see feed platter too. Clem and Gary gets a big juicy steak cook to perfection. This is sum of the best food the girls have ever had, and since theys been everywhere, that's a reel complement.
Everybody heads back to theys rooms to get sum rest, it has been a rather long day and tomorrow will come too soon.
Bubba says he be along in a bit he wants to sit under the beautiful stars and ponder some things. Its just another day in paradise...
