Notes
Yet another wall dive. This one had the strongest current so far for this dive trip. A big Grouper followed our group around near the beginning. I saw a large Nurse Shark sleeping under a ledge. I was fighting the current to get a good view so I didn't get any good pictures. Lily didn't see it as the current pushed her past that spot and she couldn't get back.

Lily blew her safety stop on the previous dive so I made her do an extra long safety stop here.

I brought the Reefmaster on this dive instead of the Nikonos as it was cloudy and the water visibility was lower today.
