Sea the Turtle

Toni, Laura, Cami and Marta set out at 11:30 looking for clear waters. First we tried the caves, then headed for the Marine Room hoping for sharks. We were 2 strikes on the clear water and the sharks, but smacked a homer--sea turtle HO! Yes, just 100 yards straight out from the MR, there he was; a gorgeous coffee table with fins! We followed him for quite a while, chasing him into deeper water, before he disappeared, once and for all, into the murk. This was Laura's first time seeing the great elusive sea turtle. And I take full credit for spotting it (even though I was looking for sharks).
Water temp 65-ish; much slap-in-the-face surface chop on the way back to the cove (whaddupwitdat?) Yet clear and calm inside the cove.
