Great report and pics as usual.

I'm wondering........do you have a favorite snorkel spot, besides where you saw the dolphin, of course.

I was thinking the same thing.
Becky, could write a book with TR and food porn and such.....what a big seller. Anthony could even market it here........:)
I want so much to have the success you have snorkeling. I think it is 'cause I never have a snorkeling pal.
My friend Mary and I did on island and she since has passed away.

There's no $ sign on a peace of mind, this I've come to know

:D I knew it!! I knew it!! I knew it!! :D A dolphin encounter is my snorkling dream. I'm so envious. I'll look for them when I'm there in a few days. I would not have been able to contain myself with those horrible people harassing the dolphin. I thought jerks like that weren't allowed on STJ. There should be a law banning them from the island

As always, Becky, you're reports are the best with so much information and detail.

I made everyone I know look at your pictures. Seriously, you could run excursions. Snorkel and Food excursions. Hmm. Let's think of a name for your business...

Thanks so much for not posting the 'abridged' version of your report! I love reading your reports...FABULOUS!!

And seriously...you have the best Snorkeling Karma of anyone on the planet. I will PAY you to let me follow you around. I promise to linger in the back, be very quiet, and just enjoy the dolphin, octopus, eagle rays, etc. :lol:

But I might beat up the jerks that try to touch the dolphin. Hope that's ok! 8)

what a wonderful report! and the dolphin encounter--how cool!
I know what you mean about idiots though--I was at francis and there was a huge hawksbill and this family of idiots just started chasing it and trying to CATCH it!

ugh......
