Pictures from the water camera....

I finally got around to downloading my pictures from my water camera and my sisters. The picture above is of us on our way to the jet-ski's. This was one of the things that Brooke wanted to do....so the 4 of us went. It was a lot of fun. I have been a couple of times, but there is nothing better than being on the ocean. It was beautiful.

Trish and Rock rode together and Brooke rode with me. We took turns driving...I was pretty careful because she was afraid to fall in and get eaten by sharks...seriously. We still love her!! When she drove we went 3 MPH...fine 5. No, she started out pretty slow and began to pick up speed as she got more comfortable. We stayed on the whole time...Trish and Rock were in the water a lot.....but that didn't surprise me!

After we rode on the jet ski's we went on a boat ride called, "The Screamer." It was a blast and we got drenched!!
Snorkeling.....I have a funny story....

Our last day my 3 sisters and I went snorkeling. It was amazing. I have only been one other time and this was a much better experience. They dropped us off in 3 different spots. The first one was mostly just to snorkel and get used to the water. The second spot was to swim with the dolphins and the 3rd was to swim with the sea turtles. I am sad to say that between 2 water camera's we did not get a decent picture of either of those animals....

Anyway, During our last spot I was struggling with my snorkel gear. Water kept getting in my goggles and then my eyes would burn. I would rub them with my hands forgetting that my hands are covered in salt water, too...it was a mess. After it was figured out, I carried on until the next incident.

OK, so there is a kid, ummm about 14 years old and 100lbs. floating on a surf board. He was a part of the crew and his job was to keep us all together. So, on several occasions he would come over to me and ask me if I was OK. I told him, YES, that i was just having issues with my mask. At least a half a dozen times he came over to me.

About 10 minutes later, still in the water my sister, Trishia came over to me and was expressing her amazement of the ocean and all that she was experiencing. She then proceeded to ask me if I was having fun.

I said, yes. Then said, "I must look like I am struggling, though because that kids keeps asking me if I am, OK." She started to laugh.

"Trishia...and I keep thinking to myself...it's going to take more than you and that surfboard to rescue me."

So, now we are laughing so hard that i am starting to drown and I yell. "Stop I have to float first." It was funny. One of the highlights of our trip.

Anyway, here are some pictures of that day...
