Dove a new site today called Phil’s place. Deeper dive – 85 feet or so; nothing spectacular on this dive, pretty but a bit ho hum, I guess we are getting spoiled. The second dive was one we have done before called Yellow Tail.

I was up long before Meghan and Carolyn, so I headed off for an “American Breakfast” at the restaurant, (2 eggs with cheese, bacon, toast and coffee) along with a large bottle of water.

This time we saw 4 nurse sharks, a sting ray and a few huge schools of smaller fish. Once we got back to the hotel we decided to go have lunch. Just as […]
