Weekend switcheroo
Today we switched residences, from the Divi Resort to a private residence, in Belnem, on the southern part of the island. It has a dock right out to the ocean and our living room has a thirty foot sliding glass wall to give us the most spectacular view of the Caribbean ocean! We will get a few pics of the place up later.
Here is a little movie of some guys sharing the front yard with us.
We picked Mike up at the airport – his flight was slightly late – and we swung home for a quick dip in the ocean. We saw some cool stuff – a biggish moray who was very active was one neat thing.
And we saw this fish called a soap fish – a most shy fish, who takes off quickly when we approach. But here he is checking out what the moray is doing.
We also saw our first lionfish! BOOO!
