I'm glad you all liked reading the report! Sometimes I think my reports are too long but I love St. John so much I want to share all the details with my fellow St. John fans!
Susan, I am pretty certain that the sharks are blacktips. I got a good look at the snout before they turned around, and the shape fits, as does the shape of the fins. If anyone thinks otherwise, please feel free to correct me.
jmq, we called it a draw, photo-wise. We decided it would be safest that way. I did win the underwater video competition though!
Colleen, I am glad I inspired you to book your tickets! October, huh? We might see you there...
Bert, too funny on the urchins! I will confess that of all the underwater creatures, they are the ones that terrify me most. I can handle the jellies and the sharks, but man, I am always afraid I am going to get stabbed by an urchin! I don't even think the kind that grow in the Caribbean are the edible kind (Not that I want to eat urchin anyway...I tried it once and the texture was terrible. It got all smeared inside my mouth like paste. Just thinking about it makes me want to hurl!).
Again, thanks for the kind words everyone, I am really glad that you enjoyed my report.
Have a great weekend!
