16 Mar, Sun


BREAKFAST AND SNORKELING

breakfast at noon ..... i ordered waffles ... note to self, and i know this! ... they do not have Maple Syrup here, and the syrup they served was really horrible  :(   .... and i just saw on Stevie's FaceBook that they are collecting the 'real' syrup right now in Michigan   :( ...  the bacon was good, however  :)

Angie and i met again at 3pm to go snorkeling at West Bay ... Sunday in Honduras is 'family' day and there were a lot of little kids in the water, enjoying the day ... no cruise ships ;)

we had a drink at BananaRama  ... and here we learned that some of the Resorts at West Bay are NOT abiding by the no-alcohol-after-5pm-Sunday-law !!!!!!!!!  .. so it seems ... money does talk !

we cooled off in the water, and looked for the guys .... then got in the water for some snorkeling ....

i saw a guy taking a photo of something, and i slowly approached, ... he pointed ... it was an Eel that i've never seen before ....

Chain Moray Eel


i looked it up ... a Chain Moray Eel ... and i can see why it is called that ...



this is my first Midnight ParrotFish .. it is dark blue and has lighter blue markings...

the rest of the snorkel i saw the 'usual suspects' ....

i don't usually see more than one Graysby at a time ...

but today i saw several, and at this location there were 5 ... and 2 of them were not getting along ...

just before getting out of the water, as the sun was setting ... there was a lot of activity on top of the coral in very shallow water ...
