Ever since I saw Hola, Rian,
Ricka, Phie, Sena, Romulo (?) “ducking”, I thought, I wanted to
do that. Even more, how Chok retrieved my sunken snorkel in the pool
was a surprising sight. I wanted to duck dive. It turned out to be
not easy as it might look. Found it difficult, especially the
equalizing part.
As often, the excitement was soon
forgotten. But when buddies started free diving, I lazily said, I’ll
give it a try.
Two months or six sessions in pool
later, here I was: free diving at sea! I joined the ever famous Jason
Hakim aka JJ, Azam, Andrian, Pak Bayu, and Agus to free dive at the
waters of Pulau Air, Pulau Bandeng, and the pier of Pulau Pramuka.
There at Pulau Air, I,
unfortunately, had to bid farewell to my goggle. I accidentally
dropped it into the black water. Sad. It had accompanied me for two
years of diving, snorkeling, and free diving. Well well now I am not
that sad. I am looking forward to wearing new goggle. I thanked Pak
Bayu for bringing extra goggle, I could free dived last weekend!
It is true that one may never
freedive alone. I was exhausted at the water of P. Air. Buddies were
ever helpful and supportive. they waved to call the boatman to pick
us up.

I had a big time free diving
eventhough equalization was difficult to do. It was fun to watch
buddies descending to the black and whence ascending, like dolphins.
