Snorkling at the reef again...with new friends.

This is the boat we took for our all day excursion. It usually takes about 45min -1 hr to get out to the reefs and we can spend 2-3 hrs snorkling! So again we have morning tea....buffet lunch....afternoon tea...snorkling is hard work!





Here we go...stinger suits, life vests etc....we are on a pontoon in the middle of nowhere!




Once again...God provided new friends for all of us...These girls were very sweet and fun to let me hang out with them on the reef. Allison and Stephanie are nurses ( from Wisconsin and Iowa) who met at a christian universary to study nursing together. They are traveling to various cities for 3-6 mo contracts. Woo-hoo they loved taking pictures....of themselves....no! i mean of the fish! Thanks for a fun day girls! God bless!
It  truly was like swimming in an aquarium today! God created sooo many beautiful fish and coral on the reef...Its so hard to describe. This guy was swimming in the middle of a school of Nemos!







It looks calm now...but the trip out to the reef was not for the faint of heart...or stomach! We all munched on ginger tablets and ice chips the way out!
 
End of the day! This is the view from the top of the street when I come out of Tree Tops! Isn't it gorgeous??

    Praying for you and that God will continue to provide you with experiences and friends that point to Him.

    Love, Elinor
