Diver's Notes

Second night dive of the Liveaboard although this was totally unguided.Jumped in with a 1.5 metre Grey Reef Shark about a metre below Charlotte (my buddy)...Awesome.Descended down into the black and thought we didn't really move from the bottom of the boat.Encountered two Green turtles resting under a overhang.Ascended to where we thought the boat was only to be about 500 yards in front of the boat on the other side.Scary.
