Diver's Notes

(Jill 49): Queen's Throne. This was a shallower moored dive after our deep one. Site was good, but not as stunning as the first one. Saw a lobster, and some cool tiny cleaner shrimp doing something to a shell. Also, saw another evil Lionfish. We moored within site of Stingray City, and did end up seeing one pretty large female stingray partially buried in the sand just hanging out. Even when a couple photographers (Daryl) included got within a few feet, the stingray did not move. Daryl kicked some coral badly while trying to get into position to photograph the stingray. I did not use a wetsuit on this dive and did fine. A barracuda circled me pretty close while I was doing my safety stop, it got almost within touching distance of my arm if I'd reached out. Was a little unsettling.
