I was feeling pretty lazy this morning and was not sure that I would go out for a swim. But, following Carlton’s rule of “Shut up, suit up and show up”. Out I went. I was barely underway when I find a little octopus. Some years, I don’t see any octopus, so this is great.
Then I find the akule school – at least part of it.
We are talking about a river of fish – thousands. It is like swimming around in a National Geographic iMax movie.
My $100 camera doesn’t do it justice. (My $100 camera doesn’t do anything justice – but – I don’t do underwater photography anymore.)
Nevertheless , I keep trying to make a nice movie with my $100 camera. I put this one up because I am floating around on top enjoying the fish – when a gang of predators come buzzing by. They were just checking out today’s offerings at the fish snack bar – these akule are the wildebeest of our ocean. It is only 20 seconds max. Give it a look.
By and by, I decided that my legs might be getting sunburned – so I head back in. Feeling a little sad that I wouldn’t be able to share today’s ocean adventure with Carlton – when what should appear but:
So, Carlton is still hanging out in the bay… Checking on me.
Great day today. Now, the coqui frog has started up. So, that means it is time for me to prepare dinner.
