Oops . . . here is the octo:

Yes! Dived Cedral Wall and San Francisco at Cozumel.
Joked about seeing eagle rays at 12:12...
Set my watch alarm for 12:12, showed everyone at the time, and there, down current from us, munching furiously in the said, with it pouring our her gills, was a gorgeous medium-sized eagle ray! None of us could believe it.

Was a great day of diving except for folks who cancelled the afternoon dive. Night dive on Santa Rosa Wall was amazing, too. Plenty of octopus, big lobsters out walking, big crabs dining at the tops of mounds, and two stunning yellow seahorses.

Wonder what we will see on 11/12/13?
 
I'm yet to see an octo, despite having had people point them out to me several times. They're pretty good at hiding when they want to. That one clearly didn't want to.

No, he didn't! He was partly inside a jar, and when I saw him, I took my light away and signaled my buddy so he could come and see him before he pulled himself back into his shelter. Instead, the little guy came OUT and started wandering around. He didn't change colors, and he didn't seem stressed, and he made no effort to hide. I got to take a dozen or so pictures of him, before I took pity and took the nasty flashing light away. I LOVE little reds . . . they are often much more interactive and interesting than our big octos are.
