Today was a fun-filled day that included some great scuba and snorkeling sessions. After our group breakfast, the divers went to a dive called M1. Sadly, I did not have my camera with me on this dive, but we saw many cool things, including moray eels, flamingo tongues, and lionfish. I even had the chance to spearfish some lionfish which are invasive species in Jamaica, but I sadly missed him and he got away. Despite this, it was still really cool trying something new like this.

Later in the day, I went out snorkeling and found some cool fish too. The highlight was this giant balloon fish that I had to chase around for three minutes to catch. When I finally caught up to him, he went under a cave I could peek in and there was a Caribbean Spiny Lobster in there! It was too dark for me to photograph, nonetheless, it was a great find. We are a week away (I think) from the end of this amazing trip and I know that there are still more fun surprises and new species of fish I will soon find.
