Our first non-instructional dive. Very bad visibility this day, which made it very hard to find the reefs. Finally did, but not much sea life. Did see one jelly the size of a bowling ball. Got video of it. Lost Laura swimming back in. She went down and wandered off course. Never again. This dive was cold and exhausting, but the 1st is under our (weight) belts.
