Was a little deeper, a little further out, on the reef, there was life out there.
First thoughts were of watching old sci fi movies. i now know where the set designers got their inspiration from – the reef bed. I was also lucky enough to be leading the group when a sea turtle came out of its little hidey hole right in front of me, took a look at me for a second or two and them swam away to do whatever it is sea turtles do on a sunday after church.
Not to far further on, i spied a bloody great eel hiding in its den. Although i couldnt see it all, i knew it was huge by the size of its head and gaping mouth. i gave that sucker more of a wide birth than the turtle. Sadly i missed the stingray as i was still trying to equalise my ears to get to the bottom.
Tomorrow, one final dive and the big test.
so this afternoon i will spend swatting with my book and drinking tea so that i am fully rested for tomorrows excursion
Have a moan - the beers are on me !!
