Why'd it have to be snakes? I HATE snakes!
Not quite as bad, I swam over the top of a rock and started down the other side, only to see a moray headed up that same side. He got the right of way....
Captain thought it'd be great fun to show the newbie how to feed a moray. Problem was, I didn't have my prescription mask yet and had to get too close to see what was going on. Captain had a chunk missing out of his upper left arm where a moray had gotten hold of him.
