Amazing view on descent. I’m not known for my vocals underwater but I really
couldn’t help a few loud exclamations here. Nick called us over to see a
sting ray, but I was too late. At the time I was quietly enjoying a swim
down the side of the decks, past the torpedo launcher + tracks, through
passageways etc. When I looked back it was like the paparazzi following me,
Pete and Malcolm with their cameras and flash guns. Saw a herd(?) of
barracuda. A bit planktony on ascent.
