Diving at the Mayan

Around here there is a restaurant that is well known for its diving shows. The diving shows are awesome! The restaurant opened a long time ago and used to have lines out the door.  It’s decorated everywhere with theme like stuff and ever since it opened I am sure it been every kids dream to get inside the pool.  A couple weeks ago… Jacob’s diving instructor told the class he had arranged for them to do some diving there. He works there. We went a little early to see his show- here he is in costume and character.

We got a little something to eat first as they couldn’t get in till the restaurant was closed and all patrons had left (they wouldn’t leave either)…

Finally it was time.  First they had a previous student do some stuff for us. He currently works for cirque de soile and travels all over the world.

Then Jacob’s group got in.  They got to see all the passageways the divers use on the cliffs and under the water.  Don’t worry they didn’t dive from the top.

It was really a chance of a lifetime.  Jacob was so thrilled!
