SCUBA Diving with the Disir
When I was a kiddo, maybe seven or eight years old, my dad fell in love with SCUBA diving. So much so he wanted the whole family to join him so we could explore the oceans together. It was a wonderful idea. I’m pretty sure my big sister and big brother successfully got certified, along...
