Hello friends, we just got home the airport and our guest arrived in perfect shape!!  Her name is Eva, she is from the Denver Colorado area and she loves to dive, lucky me!!  Aimee just made a great dinner even though it’s almost 11:00 here but we all had to eat!  All of us are very tired, so this will be very short.
 
I found this photo in my folder from the last dive I did out in front of the Sea Aquarium a few weeks ago.  I remember turning off the flashes because I just wanted you all to see how many fish we have swimming around on any given day,  it’s really amazing!  You can see the tall pillar corals in the distance and a few in the middle, those are my personal favorites.  Without man-made light down here it’s all green and blue, the color red is only visible with a light or with the flashes I use, so why are fish so colorful??  I often wonder do fish see in color?  They must otherwise it would all look like this to them and there would be no need to be so colorful, just a thought looking for an answer??
 
Off to bed, I am beat!!  Have a great weekend, Barry
