The diving and snorkeling here has been great. We found a whole colony of mono striped maroon clowns. Black tangs and purple tanga are more common than the yellows tang.

We have a typhoon coming in tomorrow and we moved flights to avoid it, but the landing time keeps moving up. Hope I make it off before the weather locks us at in.

Jealous! (Of the fish, not the typhoon). Maybe you can bring a few home in your pockets!

There was a very nice acro with power blue tips that I really wanted. Just isn't right and I'd probably lose it on the trip. It belongs here so I left it here.

I do have some, I'll get them off and post them later.

We moved flights to get out before the typhoon, but they cancelled the flights two hours before departure, so here we set in a hotel in Saipan. We did notice some of the locals playing in the ocean as we came back from getting supplies. The seas were pretty rough and the normal port of Saipan lineup to enter the harbor moved out to sea early this morning. Next flight out that we could book is two days away so we'll likely get some snorkeling time in tomorrow.
