Breeeeeezy!

Yes, today a South wind prevailed.  I paddled with the wind down almost to Kalama Park and then turned to paddle South.  It was kinda choppy and it seemed to take me forever to pass Kam I!  By the time I made it down to the boat ramp, the wind suddenly backed off and it got much nicer.  I hung out there for a while hoping the turtles would come visit me again, but not today!  On my way back, the wind kicked up again and I paddled with it all the way home.  Swimming was nice, and down by the rocks and reef, I saw a big Puffer fish.  I tried to follow it, but it wasn’t happy about it, so I left it alone.  That species of fish is not very friendly!  Then I saw an eel scurry into a cave in the reef and watched a school of Trumpet fish (about 20 – 30 of them) congregating.  Besides the adult tropical fish,  I saw a lot of tiny baby fish as well.  I think that is a location where fish lay their eggs because there are so many different types of baby fish all together.  The day was still beautiful despite the wind and very enjoyable!
