Last week I was visiting from Colorado and got a few dives in. Thanks to Jenny, I saw my first seahorse and nudi at the bridge. Thanks! Here are a few pictures I'd like to share. Can anyone id the octopus for me? It was a lot different than any of the others I saw there.

We went what has now become yesterday, saw a lot of stuff except the octos we expected to see in abundance! I had 73-75 water temp on my Suunto--the Diva had 71 on her "just back and 2nd time replacement under warranty" Oceanic'yech! Viz 15 or so out west.
