A week from today I embark on an
adventure that I have dreamed about since I was a child and I saw the
movie Jaws. When I saw that movie in fell in love with sharks and
particularly the great white shark. Since that day it has been my
dream to be in the water (and in a cage) with these animals. On
Tuesday we embark for San Diego to live out that dream. Once there we will spend a couple
days visiting family, going to the San Diego Zoo, and checking out the USS
Midway museum. Then it is off to a little island off the west coast
of Mexico called Isla Guadalupe.
We will be taking a Great White
Adventures charter out of San Diego and going on a 5 day trip to the
island. Guadalupe is the premier spot in the world to dive with
these animals due to the up to 100 foot visibility and relatively
warm water. For 3 of these days we will be diving with the oceans
apex predator. Not only that but I get to fish for tuna on the days
we aren't diving which should be almost equally awesome. I am taking
2 Go Pros so by the time it is all said and done I am hoping to have
a wealth of footage. Stay tuned for what I hope is some amazing
stuff.
