Hi and ho!

This week me and my dive buddies went to Jordfall once again to dive. The plan was for us to do two dives. Having said that, we put on the equipment and began to slowly descend towards the water's edge and outwards to get in as good a position as possible. When we went down into the water we saw that, like last week, there was a brown lid on the surface, which made the visibility poor at first and the rest of the dive was like a night dive. During the first dive, me and my buddy followed the wall at relatively even depth while we were shooting photos
When we then ended the dive, we took a moment of hot drink and talk, as is the usual procedure when diving like this year, before we decided to start the next dive.

On the second dive, we decided to go over the deep soft bottom to look for octopus. We swam out until we were satisfied and then went down. When we reached the maximum depth, we started to swim towards the left. The octopus shone with their absence this time. Instead, we saw a King Crab, the first for the season. We continued along the soft bottom until it was time to start going up. We swam up at a leisurely pace, unfortunately I managed to pull on a little decompression time, so we had to lie for a while at 3-4 m and wait until the deco-time expired.
All in all, I'm happy with this week's dive.
So until next time, keep on swimming!
