Snorkel along Chinaman's Hat

In a trip of superlatives this snorkel is a 10 out of 10.  First lets list what we collectively saw.  Penguins, Sharks, Rays, Sea Lions, Snake Eel, Spiny Lobster, Starfish, Schools of small striped fish, schools of small orange fish, and schools of large blue fish.  I took more videos than I did stills, so the links to those videos can be found at the end of this post.  Most at 10 to 15 seconds long.  Se did a drift dive again and let the current take us along the shore line.  There were pockets of cool water and warm water so it was easy to either cool down or heat up depending on your needs.  We were in the water 45 minutes and it was great.  Visibility was never a problem.
