The afternoon dive was really pretty boring for like the
first half. Then as Nando was showing me
a Thecacera sp. 8 (they like to call it the Pikachu), he saw a little
squid. I thought it was cute, but he
corralled it aside and showed it to Catherine.
Once I was done shooting the nudis, I wandered over to it and took a few
shots not thinking anything of it. Then
it started changing colors and forming spots… or maybe rings. Holy crap and the
rings were blue. No wonder Nando was
excited. This was a BLUE RING
OCTOPUS!!! (B.R.O.) Super cool. I took a little video of it too.
Happy Thanksgiving. A
few of us Americans exchanged a little gobble gobble but alas, we had orange
chicken for dinner. Not a turkey leg to
be found.
No night dive tonight.
I couldn’t convince anyone to go and they won’t go unless there are at
least two divers. That’s OK, it was nice
to just get some rest.
