Snorkelling

We did our first ever snorkelling trip yesterday and man was it amazing!

We're both not the strongest swimmers so when we signed up we asked for some floatation devices (ie: Life Jackets!) and yes, we were the only ones with them on! :)

It's a bit unnerving to be out in the ocean but once you're in there and looking down at the sea life, it's amazing. We ended up going to 2 different coral reefs, the second one being much better than the first.

Saw a couple stingrays, a massive conch shell with it's owner, a puffer fish, tons of sea urchins and so much more....amazing. One small drawback was all the jellyfish out there. They were small so the stings didn't hurt more than a horsefly bite, but we ended up with a few welts on our arms and legs. Good thing the dive shop gave us wet suits otherwise there'd be a lot more.

We're both glad we decided to go out. It's definitely recommended anywhere there's snorkelling available. We'll be on the look out for it more now.

No pictures though. I'm regretting not buying the waterproof case for our T10. We had a waterproof film camera and that just wasn't enough for all we saw.....sigh.
