Part III - More Pictures

The beautiful water. I miss it.

A tricycle out in the ocean. I wanted to do this, but hubs thought it was alot of work!
A close up of the tricyles.


Sailboats. We contemplated these too.




Getting ready to go snorkeling! We saw a shark (no kidding) about 30 feet under us. I didn't freak, but I didn't feel comfortable about it either!



The boat that took us snorkeling.



Waiting for the boat to be ready. Nice picture, huh? LOL


We saw a cruise ship.



A little looksie of the pier.



Hubs thought we should take a closeup of my makeup-less face!



Hubs, taking a little siesta on his flippers!


Hubs, ready to go!


The bottom of the boat.

We saw a TON of fish while snorkeling. It was my first time ever and I loved it (after I had my panic attack - I had to get used to breathing while my face was under water). They put out some fish food (minnows) to lure the pretty fish close to us. It was pretty cool. They were bright blue, striped, and rainbow colored - just like they are on Finding Nemo! ha! And while we were looking at the reefs and all the pretty fish...a shark (about 8 or 9 feet long) swam under us. All I could do was point at it - it's not like I could've swam back to the boat and jumped in! Everyone came up all at once and said "Shark!" It was pretty exciting, but the shark swam away. I was looking for him the remainder of the time we were snorkeling. :) But that was the only shark sighting!
