We've had big waves and big winds the last week or so. The waves have been churned up so for the most part they haven't been very good for surfing (although a few hardy souls have been out anyway).
Yesterday the wind died down, the waves were calm so we wen snorkeling off Shacks Beach for the first time in a long while. Among other things, we saw this porcupine fish. They're kinda cute and almost cuddly - until they puff up and their spines come out. Mostly they just hang out under rock or coral ledges and stare at you with those big eyes.
One weather note: While folks back in the States were enjoying unseasonably warm weather, it has been cool here, especially at night. Last Friday night people at Ola Lola's were wearing jeans and sweatshirts or fleece jackets. Not that we're looking for (or expecting!) sympathy, but it's just interesting that we were probably dressed about the same as y'all in Michigan for a couple of days. But it looks like things are returning to normal, both there and here.
