In case you're wondering, yes, I have left this balcony. Went for 2 dives today and 3 dives yesterday.. Finally got my advance open water certification (19 years after getting my open water certification). 

We saw white tipped sharks, Southern stingrays, leopard rays, green moray eels, leopard eels, zebra eels, lobsters, many types of pufferfish that I have never seen before - yellow ones, black with while dots, yellow with white dots, and the usual ones - beautiful starfish, blue everything - coral, Sea urchins, Star fish. Oh and adult doctorfish and juvenile doctorfish, aka attendings and residents :)
