Diving in a fish tank 1/20

We found the egg station for breakfast his am. That's good because it's very important to have eggs each am and they are wonderful. Out on the dive boats this am. Antonio, the dive shop owner, trusts Andy and gave him a dive sausage so we could surface when our air was low and wouldn't have to end early. The sites were fantastic! It was like diving in fish tanks. We saw endless tropical fish, HUGE Napoleon wrasse, baby clown fish (super tiny), a huge ray buried in sand, unique red fire goby, tons of fish, a colorful crab. 

Back to the room to rest before our night dive. I read a book and almost napped on the seats on our porch shaded by the palm trees. More Nutella and bananas for lunch- can this stuff ever get old?

We met up for the night dive at 6. We got ready at the dive shop and walked down the jetty and into the water when it was dark before 7. There were 6 of us, that's a lot of people. We swam against the current along the wall. The other people aren't great divers- they were kicking and grabbing the kinda dead coral. My light and backup light crapped out on me- it was just enough to see my controls so I stayed close to Andy. We saw tons of lion fish, a nurse shark swam down the rocks and across the ocean floor. Then we saw another nurse shark and a huge turtle in a cave sleeping together. We played in the bioluminescent, very cool. Finally we saw another huge nurse shark sleeping in another cave. Good thing they aren't aggressive- this one was really big. That's about all I could see because I didn't have a flashlight that worked. We ate dinner of fish and chips and seafood salad on the beach again. No wine today, pretty tired from the 3 dives.
