For our surface interval we stopped on a deserted island. Think washed-ashore-after-a-shipwreck deserted island. There wasn’t any shade, which was unfortunate, but there was a nice sandy beach. It made me wish I had a towel so I could lie down and nap. There were large shells everywhere, even strung from a tree. I really wanted my camera then, but not as much as I did during our next dive at Delilah.
There were so many fun creatures on the dive. The biggest parrotfish I had ever seen, barracudas (I would have had the perfect shot of one’s teeth), a turtle, a giant moray eel that chased Josué, huge angelfish that did not seem camera shy, a meaty looking lobster that was out scurrying around (I’ve only ever seen them tucked away in the coral), and a toadfish, which was interesting. There were tons more, of course. Hopefully the upcoming dives will be just as exciting (and include pictures).
i am abit envious right now….the dives, food, drinks, blue water – couldn’t you have packed me in that suitcase rather then your clothes and shoes for the needy :)
