Diver's Notes

Nice dive on the right side of the spot... we walked to an entry point and "drifted" back to the stairs.
Again full of huge groupers (different ones!) beautiful gardeen eels (although I got mega-frustrated for not managing a close up shot on one - but waiting for 5 mins for one to come out may have pissed the buddies)

Also ... the longest 3m deco stop ever .... around 16+3 mins ... the computer hated me on that one.
