This weekend, I went down to Cape Hatteras, NC. I went scuba diving with the Outer Banks Diving dive shop in conjunction with the National Dive Center here in DC.
The wreck that we dove on Sunday (Saturday was cancelled) was awesome. We got to go to the SS. Dixie Arrow off the coast of Cape Hatteras. I did manage to do my deepest dive ever (101 feet), and it was amazing. The schools of fish that are shown in pictures like this are all there, and they just part to let you by. It was truly amazing.
One of the things that I wanted to do on this dive was to come up with a souvenir from the site. I managed to pick up a Hairy Triton shell similar to this one. The snail was gone already, but I plucked it from the wreck near the bow of the boat. Pretty cool!
Since my camera is broken, I can't take any pictures of it, but I may have to borrow someone's to take a pic and post it.
