- bryan s sushi
we found this great little sushi place in downtown monterey. normally, when i order $20 of sushi, i expect to get a little plate with maybe 10 pieces on it. But no. Here, they are serious about their sushi. - sushi close

yes, it's the ceiling. it's almost as inexplicable as the pictures of the red cliffs from "Bryan, Leslie, and the American West." Almost. - bryan in hojo

quick! everyone get to the dive site by 7:30 so we can dick around for an hour and a half. i am not amused. - instructors
here's our instructor, greg. he's pictured here doing what he does best: talking and talking and talking, without actually conveying much information at all. he literally spent about 5 minutes telling us that he has only ever seen one tiny shark at monterey. - bryan dons wetsuit

buddies Anna and Leslie practiced skills together as Bryan ventured off into the kelp with another real diver. (or, rather, he would have done some venturing if his rental reg hadn't broken). - leslie and william
leslie and william that water was COLD! 53 degreesish. We knew we were in trouble when we saw that all the instructors were donning drysuits instead of wetsuits (dry suits being the thing you where when diving in the arctic and such). - bryan pensive with whipped cream
