Diving in Madeira...

Since the water temps were cold enough to require thick wetsuits, I once again watched my family head off to go scuba diving without me.

It’s just as well that I didn’t go, because both girls loved the dives but they were very cold. They went down to 95 feet (29 meters) on the first dive and 65 feet (20 meters) on the second. There was no coral, but lots of eels, crabs and fireworms on the rocks. They especially enjoyed seeing a sea turtle and a ray. 

I enjoyed seeing their boat in the distance from two vantage points. If you look very carefully you’ll see them in the middle of this one...

...and then moving between dive sites.
