It was all for a good reason though! Well, kind of. We were following a mating blue ringed octopus. My mom stayed down taking pictures for longer than I did, so she had to decompress for longer, including our guide who stayed with her.
That was an interesting experience. I've never been stuck decompressing before. Gotta say, I wasn't as bored waiting as I had thought I would be. Being under water is fun!
Here are today's highlights:
 |
| This zebra striped crab. |
 |
| A bumpy/rocky nudibranch. |
 |
| Tiny shrimp with a dairy cow color pattern. |
 |
| An adorably blue nudibranch. |
 |
| This super cute orange nudibranch with gills that look like a flower on its back. |
 |
| Two small shrimps with cool pinkish color and sparkly shell on their bodies. |
 |
| A harlequin shrimp. |
 |
| The greatest find! A mating blue ringed octopus. Can you see the other octopus holding on tightly to the blue ringed's head? |
 |
| This funky, mysterious looking creature in a shell with only eyes popping out and a trunk that gropes around the ocean floor. |
 |
| This is what it looks like after I turned it up. I suspect it's some kind of sea snail(?). |
 |
| Yellow nudibranch with what looks like an umbrella over his gills. |
 |
| This shrimp that decided he loves my mom and kept running around on her. |
 |
| A red-eyed tiny crab. |
 |
| Adorable orange frogfish hiding by a similar colored sponge coral. |
 |
| By the orange frogfish is this larger frogfish that's making himself out to look like a sponge coral altogether. |
 |
| A peacock mantis shrimp eyeing me angrily at the entrance to his lair! |
 |
| "Ima fly with these wings!" said the nudibranch. |
 |
| Another nudibranch that is inspired by the dairy cow, even in plumpness. |
