Made our way down to Torii Station this morning after pigging out at a Yakiniku restaurant last night. Torii has a nice beach with stuff to rent, a huge water slide, grill, pavalions etc. We rented some snorkeling stuff and David and Kat came back with some pics which I seriously thought they had downloaded from the initial camera settings or something. Especially when they came back with about 50 pics of Clown fish, schools of Blue Damsels and a Lion fish. But the bite mark on Davids ankle from a triggerfish was too real to ignore. So we all went back out to so that me and Nolan could check it out. Of course it was low tide by then and super hard to find deep enough water to snorkel and then the skys opened up on us and we got a tropical rain shower that soaked us and drove us back to shore where we called it a day. Heading out to a BBQ at one of Nolan's friends from school (YES she's a girl of course). No big plans for tomorrow. Probably more snorkeling and beach hangout, and maybe a BBQ on the beach.
First what is a trigger fish-second, seriously cool photos. Our day was not nearly as exciting.
ReplyDeleteYour day was certainly more exciting than ours.We went to the base theater to see ICE AGE in 3d. Pretty cool but not as good as expected.
ReplyDeletePictures are fantastic. Looks better than most places on Ohau. We are jealous and can't wait to get OKI and dive. Too bad David's feet continue to cause him problems. Seems as if they are magnets for pain.
Trigger fish are these aggressive coral eating fish that are pretty common around reefs. We tried to get a pic of the ones we saw but they eluded a good photo...maybe better luck today.
