Rapture of the deep.

Ok, not that deep. A few feet.

Dad kindly sent over a disc of our underwater pictures taken while snorkelling at Kealakekua Bay. In Hawai'i, I bought a slim book of fish identification. I thought when I got home I'd just play match the fish and be able to identify all these guys for ya. It turns out most of the fish we took pics of are not in the book, or not identified by name if they happen to be in the background in a picture. Drat. I was hoping to dazzle you with my erudition.

Hopefully some marinelife boffins will stumble across this and help me out. I looked online, but no go, even on the fish charts.

Dad also points out that below I spelled "Moloka'i" incorrectly. There is no "c" in Hawai'ian. So it's "Moloka'i".
