Not too much to say today. I'm headed for bed shortly. I will be on the dive boat at 7:45 tomorrow morning for a trip to San Pedro Island. I suspect I'll be the only snorkler in a group of scuba divers but I don't mind. I haven't snorkled for five years so this afternoon I went to the beach below the house and went in the water for about five minutes to make sure my gear is in working order. It is. My wet suit still fits. There is nothing as unflattering as a wetsuit.
I am taking numerous precautions regarding motion sickness. This trip will be on the boat or in the water ONLY - there will be no shore or land time. It's a six hour trip. An anchored boat is what has really made me sick in the past. I've been taking ginger tablets for the last 24+ hours and will continue to do so. I've got my seabands, and if that fails I'm taking Bonine, a seasick med that is less drowsy than dramamine.
Yoga, weight training, reading, mandolin and a bit of housework were the other activities of the day.
Assuming I do well on the boat, I suspect I'll have some fun things to tell of afterward. If not, I'll have some funny things about feeding the fish etc... to tell of. Either way it will be an adventure.
