You can learn to dive at any age

I once read that Leni Riefenstahl had to lie about her age in order to get certified as a scuba diver. She claimed to be 52 when she was in fact 72 years old. But that was over 30 years ago. I think that since then, they have relaxed the age limit, as long as you are in good health.

At least, my 58 year old sister did not have to lie in order to get her Discover Scuba Diving cerftificate last week. I told the folks at Northern Coast Diving not to worry, that she was an excellent swimmer since she was part of the Olympic team . . . in 1952 :-)

Next, I will enroll her in PADI's elearning so that she can be a full fledged Open Water diver.

Always fashion conscious, you can notice her artful underwater hair and eye makeup;
her Coco Channel goggle; Jean-Paul Gauthier shorty; and Prada fins.

The fashion disaster in the background is, of course, yours truly.
