All by ourselves

---

We went back to the split today, snorkel gear in hand. The wind had picked up but the underwater visibility was still pretty good. Have to give a nod to Ed Kelley...snorkeling to Bob Marley is awesome. The Lazy Lizard had Marley tunes pumping through their big outdoor speakers and were easily heard underwater. The fish didn't mind...I'm sure they're very used to it. Never had this experience in the Virgin Islands.

Looks like the hurricane destroyed a metal and concrete seawall when it created the split. You can see the remains all bent and twisted underwater and it's created an artificial reef for the fish and coral.

We went back to the Rainbow Grill for their cajun lobster burgers, shrimp ceviche and frozen drinks. Excellent lunch! After a lazy afternoon, a quick chat with Lisa and Hobbling David and snooze on the rooftop hammock, we had dinner at Habaneros. It was absolutely delicious and half the price we'd pay for the same meal at home. I had the snapper wrapped in a banana leaf and Fred had the churassco dinner. Topped it off with Caye Lime Pie....stick a fork in us...we're done. Had a night cap at the Una Mas bar with J.K. and called it a night. Up early tomorrow for cave tubing and zip line tour...Lord have mercy on me please!!!!! Why did I get talked into zip lining instead of the Belize Zoo??? Like I told Lisa today....I'll be making a rainbow while zipping through the jungle canopy....just call me Rainbow Brite. Fred says what's the big deal...it is a rain forest!!!! HELP!!!!!

I really should have bought one of those laminated sheets with fish picture because I have no clue what kind of fish this is.

the current is pretty good here and the fish just keep their nose into it and stay in place.
