Well the first snorkel of the trip is under our belts. The conditions around the island seem to bad everywhere. Went to Kapalua and the best area was the area we normally don't go. It was really choppy and vis was pretty bad but once we got a 100ft or so it cleared some. You'll see from the pics all the stuff stirred up in the water. We were probably two of the first 6 or 7 people there. Most were just showing up as we were leaving after almost 2 hrs in the water. I felt sorry for the ones carrying snorkel gear. It was getting worse as we left. But like they say, "The worst day snorkeling is better than the best day working." 
Did get to see a couple of the Fantail Filefish I wanted to see. Didn't realize how tiny they were. Good at ducking under coral too.

Big Whitemouthed moray that greeted us when we got in.

My first Fantail Filefish.

 Cool little humu in real light colors.

Even with all the stuff in the water still got a decent shot of this Cornetfish.

This was probably the smallest Lizardfish I've ever seen.

Crown of Thorns starfish. Cool to look at but very bad for the reef. Especially one trying to recover.











Well that's a small taste for now not that I got a whole lot with today's conditions. The internet here is like molasses so I will get more up later. Time to get cleaned up and checkout the swap-meet.
