Default Kona Trip: First of the dives

So I still have a few dives left, first few dives were getting my open water cert, so didnt take the camera as I become a air huffer with the camera as I become quite frantic chasing fish around.

But here is a quick video that ive had time to post, of a cave entrance and the exit to some amazing coral.

Who are you diving with? I just came back from there myself. The reefs off the Kona shore are pretty incredible. Can't wait to go back.

Incidentally you have your facebook album locked out so we can't see the pictures or videos (well anyone on your fb friend list probably can but ..). 3 alternatives I could suggest for you: picasaweb, flickr, or photobucket - then you can also upload high-res versions of the pics.

Enjoy the rest of your trip!

Ya, there have been two cases of tiger shark board bites this week, and we have been looking for sharks every day with Dave our dive master, he is a shark guru, he used to head a shark research lab in the US, and has since retired from that to pursue diving.. but has dove with everything!

He is very reassuring and very calm as he sticks his head into holes of caves looking for dorsil fins!

Kerry says to me the day I went out that "she just HAD to meet the weirdo who asked to see a golden dwarf eel". Tell her the Golden Dwarf eel requester says hi.

This was one of the images I was able to get of him:

Ill be sure too if she is on the boat for our saturday night dive with the mantas!

I got this nice one of a trumpet fish, but all the good shots I could have got all seemed to be when I didnt have the camera during the technical dive portions
