Pictures of Fish

Phil and I have been doing a bunch of boat dives the last few days. Boat diving in Maui is not cheap. But I have had fun. Yesterdays dive to the Cathedrals was the best I have done this year on Maui. Great vis, no current, lots to look at. Here are some pictures of Phil and his friends. One of them loved him so much it choose him to poop on. It must be love if a fish shares his poop with you.

Old Airport

We all went to Old Airport today. Aaron and I went diving and Bob, Ken and Margaret snorkeled. The visibility was good, about 50ft. I know the people that live here think that stinks, but hey, I'm from CA where we think anything over 10 is good. The snorkelers found a Devil Scorpion fish. Took a great picture of it too. In fact his snorkeling pictures were better than my dive ones. Neither Aaron or I are great at leading dives, but we managed. We'll be better next time.

Five Graves

I did a great dive with Ron, Andy and Leona at the Graves. We actually went in at the Graves and came out at Makena Landing. We had a great dive. There was some surge and it got worse after we got out. Hope it stays good so we can dive tomorrow. Saw some great stuff. I found the ray as we were snorkeling out. Ron found the little frog fish, it's only about an inch and a half long. It was so cute. We found the two sharks in the caves. The surge was such that we didn't do the bubble cave or washing machine. Just another good Maui dive.

Molokini Boat Dive

I didn't have anyone to dive with today, so I went on a boat. I guess I have to pay to have enough playmates. The current inside the crater was impressive, but so were the fish. We saw one shark in the deep water and some big fish. Lots of reef fish and turtles. My regulator took a dump and I was able to use one of theirs. It did Not compare to mine, thank you Connie, you have great taste in equipment.
5 caves tomorrow.

Wailea Snorkeling

Bob and I went back out to Wailea today to try and see the seahorses snorkeling. We didn't have any luck. I'm not good at judging what is 13ft of water w/o my dive computer, so we spent 2 hours looking at other stuff. The coral was really nice and we saw some interesting fish.

Seahorses

We went to Wailea today and this is what we saw. They are beautiful. The brown one was on the move, headed south, so I don't know if we will find him again. I love these critters. I know Connie is so jealous and I hope they stay around until she gets here. These are the first seahorses I've ever seen in Maui. Leona seems to think that someone brought them from on of the other Islands. I don't care where they came from I love them.
