belinda & crew

 we met a gorgeous australian family, travelling with thier 3 kids.  we spent days out in the boat, snorkelling with sharks and turtles with them.  d'ya like the sign that says: taxi point under coconut tree? that's a water taxi!

on the blissful looking beach we swum out to find 3 huge sea turtles feeding on the bottom! I initially saw only one, and swum to be closer. I thought someone was swimming alongside me, only to turn to see another huge turtle swimming just next to me down to it's mate.  Even Janu, who didn't master a snorkel even with lots of trys, could see them when they came up for air! Very magical.
