today we swam with the turtles…
before that we watched surfers and paddle boarders as small and large groups went into the water to try their skills…
then we drove to another beach which had been recommended by a few different people who we had asked about snorkelling…
as we were getting into the water people were already pointing out a good sized turtle that was right there…
I tried using the flippers, but they didn’t help much so I ditched them… I was just happy to have another opportunity to snorkel…
and then the turtles started showing up as I was checking out the various fish swimming below me…
I swam along beside one for a few minutes before it headed off in a different direction… at one point I watched two of them swimming together… they are much more graceful in the water…
what a gift;-)…
of course there are no photos as we tend to leave everything in the car when we snorkel… I’ve been told my phone is waterproof but this doesn’t seem like the time to test it, lol…
here is a shot of the beach where this magic happened;-)…
what a wonderFULL time we are having…
