Hey Gang,  I know it’s the weekend and most of you won’t even get this till Monday but here it is just the same.  I just got out of the water an hour ago with a fun little reef dive with Aimee and her sister Missy on the reef at the aquarium.  This is Missy, and yes I agree they look a lot alike!  Missy did a great job today helping me add some life to my underwater scenes by swimming back and forth over some selected sponges and coral like you see here.  The dive was really nice, the water was very clear and there were fish everywhere, what else could you ask for, ok a shark or a turtle would have been nice!  Everyone always asks, is the water so cold that you need wetsuits??  Good question!  The water is around 79-81 degrees at any given time.  You don’t need a wetsuit it just makes the dive much more comfortable, and it seems like the ladies always get cold easier than men, don’t ask me why?  Also the wetsuits keep you protected from anything that stings like firecoral or little see-thru jellyfish.
 
I trust your all having a great weekend, talk to you tomorrow, Barry
