I was letting Dave run the reel so he could learn how. We went straight in and I realized that the cavern entrance was not where I thought it was. :-) I took the reel from David and looked to the left, then to the right and found it. We went back to the sign and tied off on the main line. The sign had broken loose at the bottom and floated upside-down. Dave tried to stick it back where it belonged. We goofed around for a bit, then grabbed the reel and started to head back.
I felt like I was floating sideways the whole time. I felt
around and found that my wing had come loose and was sticking
out on the left. I pointed it out to Dave and he helped me tuck
it back in. That made things better but it wasn't completely
fixed. I would have to re-work it when we got out. We swam
around a bit more. I showed Dave the entrance to Lower
Orange Grove. We grabbed the reel and made a nice, slow
ascent.
