Kiana - Day 3

Another early start to the day. I got up at 5:30 as soon as they started the generator (for cooking, etc.). Watched a lovely sunrise over the ocean. It was cloudy at first and then the cloud cleared and we had this lovely ball of fire hanging over the horizon.
Immediately after breakfast we went diving again, then snorkeling again while the new divers went on their dives. Saw this large lionfish on this dive:

Snorkeling this time was from the boat since there was little or no current to carry us away. Spent a long time, until they blew the horn for us to come back. For some reason I can't seem to equalize my ears when freediving (diving without scuba gear), so I only went down maybe 4-5 meters and then it hurt too much. So much coral, and again many different types of fish.

After diving/snorkeling was all done we took off right away. This time we were under engine and sail power. We moored at another island for lunch, then left for the last leg back to the harbor. During this time we also settled our bar tabs, packed, and the like. They turned the engine off for the last half hour, so that we were only under sail power and just gently cruised back. Then a little stop just outside the marina, so the captain had a chance to say thank you and farewell. The trip wrapped up around 3:00 pm. I spent most of the next day sleeping - guess I needed some recovery time!
