Chicago Dive Expo


For all of you out there in the Chicagoland area, don't miss out on the Our World Underwater Dive Expo that is coming up! It is being held at its usual place at the Donald E Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, IL on February 20-22! If you've never been to this, you definitely want to go! There are so many exhibitors & they all offer some awesome deals during the expo! Lots of sweet dive vacation deals, deals on equipment, etc! It's a great time! And if you don't dive, but are curious they have a pool set up and they let you gear up and get in the pool in full dive gear and let you play around in the pool to see if it is something that you'd like to do! Besides the exhibitors, they also have a film festival and in-depth workshops available for you to attend as well! Anyways, don't miss out! For more info just visit www.ourworldunderwater.com

Welcome to My Blog!

Hello fellow Bloggers! I just thought I'd make my little mark here in cyberspace to create a blog devoted to my biggest passion...SCUBA DIVING! Another subject I plan on blogging about that is very near and dear to my heart....SHARKS! I love everything about these amazing creatures and it is such a rush to get to dive with them! If you don't dive...LEARN! It's a whole other world below the water with amazing creatures and colors that everyone should get to experience! Just to get started diving, you just need your Open Water certification which is just a little classroom time and then off to the water. You could be certified in less than a week! Definitely worth looking into if you haven't already. I got certified on a cruise ship myself...did classroom stuff during the day along with some pool time & then for my first dives it was actually out in the ocean...it's awesome! Anyways, I'm going to leave it at that for now...just thought I'd get this blog rolling with its first post! So follow my blog & I'll post more interesting stuff later! Everything from shark diving to great dive spots to hit up while on vacation!
