Snorkeling

Well, I survived the 50 degree water and 55 degree weather.

We saw some AMAZING things and we weren't even that far out. In ways of fish we saw senoritas, perches, some really fish that you could barely see, and a school of some silver type of fish. We saw all types of invertebrates like sea stars, abalone, sponges, crabs, etc. We saw all types of algae too (of course). The neatest thing was a gray harbor seal that was hanging out at one end where we were snorkeling around. It swam by us, it looked at us, and it swam underneath us! It was directly below us. It was so cool. The deepest part we went to was probably about 20-30 feet deep. Wasn't too deep and you could see all the way to the bottom. Visibility was amazing.

My wetsuit did pretty well. It was a bit big on me, but served its purpose. I'm about to return it back to campus in a few. I was forgetting to breath for the first 10 minutes or so. We're so used to breathing out of our nose that I'd forget to breath out of my mouth. Once I got used to breathing out of my mouth, I was really comfortable and enjoyed the whole experience. Water was cold so I went all numb when we got out, but it was good. All-in-all, it was fun and I'm glad I went.
