going snorkeling is my favorite thing to do.
[{"role": "system", "content": "Snorkeling (British and Commonwealth English spelling: snorkelling) is the practice of swimming on or through a body of water while equipped with a diving mask, a shaped breathing tube called a snorkel, and usually swimfins. In cooler waters, a wetsuit may also be worn. Use of this equipment allows the snorkeler to observe underwater attractions for extended periods with relatively little effort and to breathe while face-down at the surface. Snorkeling is a popular recreational activity, particularly at tropical resort locations. The primary appeal is the opportunity to observe underwater life in a natural setting without the complicated equipment and training required for scuba diving. It appeals to all ages because of how little effort there is, and without the exhaled bubbles of scuba-diving equipment. It is the basis of the two surface disciplines of the underwater sport of finswimming. Snorkeling is also used by scuba divers when on the surface, in underwater sports such as underwater hockey and underwater rugby, and as part of water-based searches conducted by search and rescue teams. Snorkeling is mentioned by Aristotle in his \"Parts of Animals\". He refers to divers using \"instruments for respiration\" resembling the elephant's trunk.\n"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "I love snokeling.  Swimming through the water and looking at all the beautiful fish is so fun.  Do you like it?"}, {"role": "user", "content": "I have never actually been snorkeling. I would love to try it someday. I'm not a strong swimmer though, so I am hesitant."}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "It would be worth it to take lessons.  The hardest part is learning to breath through the tube and not feel like you might drown."}, {"role": "user", "content": "I think that would probably bother me! I am scared to death of suffocating, which is essentially what I think drowning would feel like!

I don't think you would need to worry if you learn to swim well first."}, {"role": "user", "content": "I would definitely want to take lessons first. I assume you can go on guided snorkeling tours?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Absolutley, and in the cooler water areas you wear a wetsuit which I feel like helps you float more."}, {"role": "user", "content": "We are going to Florida next summer, maybe I should try it out! After more advanced swimming lessons of course..."}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Of course, and if you get really good you could try Scuba Diving which is more advanced."}, {"role": "user", "content": "lol I don't know about that...maybe at some point but not in the near future."}]
