... that would be MORE SHARKS!! ... but as before ... not very big and as far as we could tell ... asleep.
We (Carolyn and I) saw 2 smallish Nurse Sharks on our 1st dive today (Cedar Pass reef) but according to some of the divers there were two under one ledge where we saw only one ... still exciting ... when the tanks are being "banged" to get divers attention and then the banging diver makes a dorsal fin with his hand on his forehead indicating "SHARK" and then points ... you can be sure every diver within hearing range is swimming like crazy to where the spotter is pointing ... seems kinda like chasing bears ... maybe not the best idea after all.
Today was our last day of diving and we had two very long (1hr+) dives with a lot of marine life and coral/sponges ... beautiful as always .
I did finally see a spotted eel on the 2nd dive today ... usually see a lot of eels but not this trip. Also no Splendid Toad Fish on this dive ... another expected to see but didn't.
Well tomorrow will be a shopping day since no diving at least 24 hours before flying ... that has been challenged lately and it's probably ok within 18 hours but no point in risking a DCS (decompression sickness -- the bends) hit.
We were dissappointed that we never got to dive with our favorite dive master Juan "A" but he spent the week with a large group from Minnesota ... oh well.
See you later ...
Bade
