One thing about documenting how your day went if at the end of the day amazing happens you want to start with that. But I will resist and talk about all the cool stuff in order.
Today was a trip to the MUSA which is an under water art exhibit basically. There are a few most you have to dive to enjoy but one off the Nizuc point works for snorkelers. It’s partially in the national park but the boundary is a rope and boueys so who know.
Took a boat out to a floating platform outside the “park”. From there we snorkeled in. The first set of structure was a bunch of guys around a table. Couldnt figure out my phone camer case. So just captures the guys butt. There was also a lady with her arms out stretch and a guy watching TV. One also I guess “fell over” due to the hurricane.
Saw striped fish, camouflage fish, big fish, blue fish. A few others in our part saw a turtle and stingray. It was a great adventure! Water was a little murky but considering the hurricane that came though so be it.
The snorkel was super cool but this random encounter was amazing!! After dinner at the hotel I decided to take a stroll on the beach. All of a sudden I almost ran into the biggest turtle. She was headed back out to sea. It was so exciting. I walked around and saw her tracks and then notice another set further up. So she was scoping out something.
So I decided to hang out a bit, play with my camera exposure of the moon light.
Then about an hour later she cane back. She was started building a nest, tossing dirt everywhere. Would have loved to stay and watch her lay eggs and cover it all back up but I read it takes up to 3 hours. No thanks I’ll leave her at peace.
Pictures didn’t cut it since I didn’t want to use flash but video was perfect to show the flying sand.
