Underwater Solar System

I have traveled to different countries and have experienced memorable activities in all of them, but one of my most memorable adventures was right here in my home town. My brother and I once worked with a scuba dive instructor in Crystal river, FL. who certified us and took us out on different diving trips. The most memorable of these was an evening cave dive. Once everyone in our group was down in the cave we were each given a glowstick to cut open. We had been told prior that we needed to stay very still so the sand would settle. Once it had, each person shook out the contents of the glow sticks and turned off their flashlight. At that moment it was like I had been transported into the vast and boundless solar system. There was no sound, there
was no light, except for the glow of what looked like millions of stars. All my life, in all my travels that was by far one of the best experiences and one I will never forget. If you are ever in Crystal River, Florida I would suggest going to the Plantation Inn Dive Shop and ask if Paul or one of the trained professionals can bypass a typical scuba diving experience and take you through a journey into outer space.
