Snorkeling in Lobster Bay
First time snorkeling this year. 15 degree cold water. The 3mm suit was ok, but I really should have brought a hood. Instead I placed my upper body on the buoy, to keep my head out of the water as much as possible. Stayed in the water for almost an hour. Very clear, sunny, some large algae. There were several large puffer fish, and many box fish. At times, I could see up to a dozen, including juveniles. The Olympus 5050 is a bit slow in taking (repeated) pictures, and really only suitable for scuba.
