The first few dives sapped the energy out of me and all I wanted to do was to sleep when I got out of the cold waters . The only redeeming factor was the food - or then again , it could be I was really hungry . Seawater does that to me , somehow . So I spent most of today recuperating . And I would say no to diving for a while , for now .

Question: What seemed to really drain the narrator of life ?
Freezing temperatures .
