    I did wear a shirt (always do), but I was already sunburned from that walk down the beach 2 days before, and sitting on the beach (in the "shade") the day before LOL. I should've worn shorts too, since that was the only part of me that wasn't (notice past tense) burned before I snorkeled for an hour! There were no jellyfish, though in the water at the resort I brushed a small floating stick out of my way and something (I'm guessing hydroid) stung me on my thumb. Took a day for that to go away. I actually had to move my ring off my thumb to another finger for a day.

    Work has been so stressful that it took 2 days for me to get into vacation mode, and my first 2 days back I ended up working 12 hours. I definitely need to start playing the lottery!

    The camera is a little pocket Olympus underwater that's good to 10 feet, bought it a couple of years ago in New Orleans so I'd have one. This was its first real, extended use.

    I knew those fish were following me for food, but I didn't bring any for them. Didn't want them to get used to being fed on the reef & REALLY didn't want to be completely surrounded, either! LOL I was cracking myself up because I kept saying "Awwwww!" with my snorkel in when I'd see the tiny fish!
