Oh another morning.... another island. So different, craggy cliffs, gorgeous flamingos and off course Mauricio telling us all about wildlife. Walking down to the beach, it was time for another snorkel. Certainly didn't look inviting as the sand was churned up. I headed off... ooh scary stuff! Suddenly it was as if there was a line in the water ... the temperature dropped, visability was clear and there deep down below us were the sharks circling! WoW! Smaller shoals of colourful fish flashed by, octopus clung to the rocks and the waves ripped overhead.

A fairly long swim back to shore and then exhaustedly back to the boat. Felt sad to think that this was our last snorkel as we head off back to San Cristobal tonight ! And then the jungle OMG!!!
