 Atlantic Longarm Octopus Hi guys, how was the weekend?? Did you get a lot done or did you go to a movie and just relax? We have a friend staying with us at the moment who is from California named Tom. The first thing I did this morning was take him and the dogs to the cool bat caves at Koral Tabok where I finished hiding my new Geocache called Batman and Robin. While I worked on the Geocache Tom explored the cave and the surrounding area and the dogs stayed with me. After playing around there and getting a few new GPS coordinates off we went a bit further down the road and parked the car and set off on foot towards the ocean. The North coast of Curacao is getting heavily pounded at the moment with giant waves. We watched and watched as wave after wave rolled in and exploded onto the jagged limestone shoreline, it was unbelievable!! There was so much salt spray in the air that every minute you had to take your glasses off and clean them. The dogs had a great time running around but came back to me every once in a while for a much needed drink and like a good pet owner I carry lots of water for them. Once back home I submitted my new Geocache on-line and then spent the rest of the day working on the computer. At 4:30 I took off with a friend on a fun mountain bike ride around the salt pans, it was super windy but we both had a pretty good time.
This is a beautiful little baby Atlantic Longarm Octopus that I again found at Eden beach in Bonaire on one of my night dives. This guy was in three feet of water and just laid there trying to not move and blend in and was changing colors the whole time. Bonaire is the only place I have seen these octopus, they are so diffeent than the other two we see all the time in Curacao.
That’s my day, we just had a great dinner of chicken on a stick on the grill, yummy!! Bye all, Barry
