Aloha! Jackie and I have been enjoying a very nice Veterans Day. The weather has been great...low 80's with light trades and just enough rain to make our snorkel interesting. If you have never snorkeled in the rain you should try it. The water falling on you back gives you a very peculiar feeling. Guess if you wanted to see what it feels like you could always lay down in a bathtub full of water and turn on the shower. You could even wear a snorkel mask if you like but if you do I wouldn't wear the fins as that would just be too weird! The water at Anini was really nice today. We had real good visibility and not a lot of current. We weren't expecting the conditions to be so great as there is a moderate swell coming thru now and usually that stirs the water up some. We saw a lot of fish today and at one spot out by the buoy we were swimming with a large school of cornetfish. There must have been at least 20 of them. We have noticed them in this spot before...they just seem to hang there about half way between the top and bottom almost like they are asleep. In the video I posted today I was trying to give you a glimpse of what it feels like to snorkel. How most of the fish just kind of accept the fact that you are not a threat and how there are so many neat ledges and holes in the coral. It really is beautiful and always reminds me of what I think an alien landscape must look like.
