Diver's Notes

Saw a batfish, sea cucumber, and I got to hold a sea urchin. I lost my GoPro (attached to a UShot monopod) somewhere between the safety stop and getting on the boat. The lanyard attachment hole broke and the pole and camera fell away from my dive lanyard. Thankfully our DM Greg Christi and another DM dove back down and found it in the sand. If it hadn't been negatively buoyant, it would have been drifting back to the shore.
