Off on the big dive trip. The boat is fairly basic but comfortable. The first day we did two dives on the famous cod hole. It's a bit like Slates Friday dives on the city of Washington. Potato Cod appear to be a type of Goliath grouper. Visibility has been a bit disappointing, but adequate. Not quite what I was expecting, lots of particulates. The unbelievable thing to me is that I can post this blog from the middle of the Coral Sea! We went back to Cairns after 4 days, and Jean came to meet me!
She rented a little red thing to go around in. My dive boat is in the background. Diving has been good, but like anywhere you've read and heard about since childhood, it's a little bit of an anticlimax when you actually come and see it.
The highlight for me was being able to photograph cuttlefish – they're awesome
