Subject: Post: Me and Laura spent the afternoon by taking a snorkeling trip out to the reef, while Timo skipped the snorkeling and searched for a place to fly his kite.The snorkeling trip took a couple of hours, stopping at three locations along the barrier reef. At the first location there were dozens of nurse sharks and stingrays which didn't care much about us, it was even possible to touch them. By the way, a shark doesn't like if you pull it's tail.. :)Just before leaving the reef we also spotted a big eagle ray. I followed the ray for a while underwater but couldn't catch it, it was way too fast and shy. The ray had two-three meters "wingspan" and 1-1.5 meters long thin tail, and unlike smaller stingrays it was moving differently, flying like a bird in the water. That was fantastic to see.The reef was beatiful and our newly bought underwater camera worked nicely. The only problem is that suncream does not help when snorkeling, so both me and Laura are slightly red now.. And hungry. :) Latitude: Longitude: Security Code:
