My first dive back in cold water since my trip to French Polynesia. And really, the cold was the least of my worries. Drysuit undies and drysuit diving took care of the chilly air and chilly water. Now the drysuit fit a little tighter, the hood was a bit awkward, and I was a tad out of breath by the time I hit the water, but all in all, a successful sunset / night dive. Besides the myriad of critters, there was a pair of rockfish battling it out. I don't think they were kissing.
