The Secret Beach

Today we were introduced to a "secret beach." Basically our married friends, Katie and Reed, discovered it by accident. It's a strip of beach about a half-mile long with super soft sand and clear water which allows for great snorkeling with no one else on the beach. It was both Tony and my first time snorkeling. If you have never been snorkeling it's something you have to train yourself to do: not freak out when you can only breathe through your mouth, know what to do when you do get water down your snorkel... it's not that bad, but it was just a new, exciting experience. We did see quite a few schools of tiny fish swimming around the rocks and coral. The other three people with us went out much farther and said they saw four eels. Scary, right?! But they said they were only about two feet long. Personally, I wouldn't go back in the water if I had seen them, so it's a good thing I didn't go out that far. Ha.

Here we have Dorothy, Katie and Reed. They are wonderful company to have.

Here is a little sea cave.

This weird thing is on the side of a rock near that sea cave. Any ideal what it is? Maybe a sea slug???

Bear LOVED running free and playing catch. He even braved the waves to retrieve his ball :)

This is my 30 week picture by the way. 10 more weeks left, what?!?!?!

This was definitely a place we'll be visiting in the future. Very private, relaxing, clean, and fun.
