Diver's Notes

One dive today - 2nd dive cancelled - hurricane Iselle was looming.

There was also a 4.5 earthquake in hawaii at 6:34 which was right about the time I jumped in the water.

Looked like a lot of the marine life bugged out to avoid the hurricane. Lots of eels out - found a snowflake eel getting a good cleaning by a shrimp.

Finally found a nudibranch here.
