Today's trip report

Post by troy32 »

All I pretty much remember from last night was the last place we stopped at, Woody's. Had some shark bites(I highly recomend!!), and a few drinks. Well, we started out early this morning and headed to Hawksnest Bay. This was our first snorkle excursion. It was unbelievable!! We saw so many different kinds of tropical fish and squid. Wish we had a underwater digital camera, maybe next trip. After spending a few hours there, we took off as it started getting crowded around noon. After talking to a couple the night before, we headed out to Waterlemon Bay. It was well worth the walk when we swam out and spotted four different sea turtles. Can this place get any more frickin awesome!!! We snorkled until we were completely exhausted and packed up and hit the road, staying left. Decided to have a late lunch over at Skinny Legs and a couple of drinks, then headed back to the villa. I litteraly just got out of the pool and had to type this in before all of my coordination goes numb from the alcohol. I have a few pics to load up in the morning, and just in case you haven't seen any of them, here's the link.

Enjoying your play by play! Just FYI, I didn't have an underwater digital camera either when I was there. I bought just a disposable underwater camera and thought if they turned out, they turned out. It worked pretty well, not as good as a digital of course, but still had them memories captured. Here's a few examples, Have fun!

Smoothies were awesome, and yes, we will be back later in the week. We have seen a lot, but we also know that our time here is priceless. We did buy a couple of disposable underwater cameras. I did empty one of them today in fact, just before we got to see the sea turtles :( . Tomorrow will be a little more relaxed, we decided to spend the morning pool side and then some mid day shopping for family back home. What ever else happens is just fine too, we're here all week.
