    ok trip report continued...first I want to remind everyone this is a report as seen thru MY eyes...I may a few bad things to say about a place that a lot of people like on here...but it is what happened on my reach, so I will tell it like it is.....

    well I get up about 630 and prepare my early morning sub...then walk down to the beach to enjoy it...I walk a little toward the white sands end of the beach to wild parrot and then turn around....wild parrot and whte sands look like fun, so we will be at these places later in the week...

    I walk back to my room at Fun Holiday. I had a carry on and a checked bag...my swim trunks came from my carry on yesterday, so today I look for some things for todays trip to the cliffs...this is when I noticed the afore mentioned baggage mishap....my wife also had a checked bag and a carryon...when I left suanday morning it was about 4 am, and i grabbed the two bags w/o wheels, so she could pull her bags...I started going theu the suitcase and then I noticed it....this bag had all of her clothes...

    I tore thru the bag....nothing for me, well a few snacks, supplies, etc, but not one piece of clothes...lots of crap to give to the kids and others, but today, I am the needy, lol...luckily, we always pack on set of clothes in our carryon in case of lost luggage, so i had one pair of shorts, swim trunks, 1 shirt...several pairs of womens panties and a pink cover-up...

    I did have cat food, but no clothes.

    now I will tell about my previous snorkle experience....about 15 years ago, I signed up for a snorkle trip in the Bahamas...it was rough seas, but I went anyway...well they put us in the water, not much instructions, and I couldnt get a hang of it...swallowing more water than allowed, mask fogging up, breathing all wrong...then I start to get sick and blahhh, I let go of my lunch....the good thing is it is a great fish attractor, I had tropical fish all around me, but I felt so sick, I could not care...so I get back in the boat and rock so much that I am still queasy 2 days later...so no more snorkel for me until we start going to negril..well I bought gear and try it on a few trips to the 7 mile beach. I never get the hang of the breathing, and my mask always fog up...so when rina asked me to go snorkeling, I said I just wanted to go for a water taxi ride and take pics...

    fast forward until now....we meet vincent at catcha, load up and we are off....

    after we get to the reef, vincent gives us some tips...now I know why he is called FAMOUS Vincent...he talked me into snorkeling, rub some stuff on my mask to prevent fogging, show me how to breathe, and then he jumped in and snorkled with us, showing us seveeral different interesting items of sea life...he gave us all some bread, and off we went...we saw many of the beautiful blue and the yellow tropical fish, they were eating out of my hand....saw a huge manteray sting ray, saw and held a few HUGE sand dollars, and then he pointed out a gigantic sea turtle...at this point, I felt like I was in the "Finding Nemo" movie set, with all the colorful fish, and that sea turtle right there...it was right there, I felt like I could touch it...How freaking cool.....we snorkeled for about an hour or a likkle more, then headed back....

    on the way back, we saw about 4 dolphins swimming and playing in front of the boat and then all of a sudden, they started swimming beside the boat, racing us....

    couple pics of the dolphins

    Next time you snorkel,spit in the facemask and rub it around.Helps stop the fog.Also if you get stung by a jellyfish have someone pee on it?? Fun facts to know & tell.
