diving

Went for 2 dives today off the north shore. One to 67 ft. and one only as low as 38 ft. Was good to dive again as I hadn't been since I got certified in Thailand in 2003. Didn't take too long to get the hang of it again. Swam with a pretty large turtle which was cool. The reefs are fairly dead compared with what I saw in thailand however.

Had sushi for lunch and picked up a hitch hiker who turned out to be a surfer (in hawaii? really?) and he said he was paddling out near diamond head when a tiger shark came by and he bolted it for shore. Tiger sharks are pretty much the only really dangerous shark out here though there are a few other ones which are smaller and more timid such as grey sharks, galapagus sharks and white tip sharks.

Turtles are cool.
