Crown of thorns, eel, octopus

Feb. 26th –Today, I am going to scuba dive in the ocean for the first time and I heard there is occasionally a shark seen here. So, I was now a little nervous but also excited. I saw a lot of fish but there were some creatures that stood out from the rest. Those were the crown of thorns, white mouth eel, and an octopus. When we saw the octopus, he inked.
Science--I read a review about the dive site and the author had dived there around 40 times there. He said that he occasionally sees a hammerhead shark where the stream enters the ocean. Sharks like to hang around where the freshwater meets the saltwater.

Scuba diving! I can't wait to hear all about what you saw and how it felt. I have always wanted to do that. Here in Maine it is still snowing (well, not right now, but yesterday we got another 8 inches). The drifts of snow are so high and wide that our driveway is only wide enough for one car.
