This again is going to be more of a photo journal until I have time to update the journal entry. Hopefully I will find the time. In the meanwhile I hope you enjoy the photos. The hotel I stayed at was Manta Ray Bay Hotel and I dove with Yap Divers, a dive shop attached to the hotel. The staff at both the hotel and the dive shop where amazing. Alex my dive buddy was the greatest and got me to do things I swore I would never ever try i.e. a twilight or night dive. If you are planning a trip to Yap, not that there are many options, but Manta Ray Bay in my mind is the best (althought I hear the other places are nice too).

Ok, I am finally back. I know I promised my site would be complete by the 1st of September, but I never expected to have so much fun. Translation, no time to write. I also need to look for a job so, please be patent with me as I update my site. I have a lot of great photos, some video (if I can figure out how to load it) and stories to tell but it is going to take some time. So please check back often.... full info

Manderin fish 1
Manderine fish are small. Males are about 1.5 inches and females are about 1 inch long. They live in finger coral near shore and mate at night. They are rare and really amazing to watch!
Sea cucumber
I love these guys! They’re so ugly there cute! They remind me of an underwater Snuffleupagus (you know Big Bird’s Mammoth looking friend from Sesame Street). They are also really big 4 feet on average.
Cleaning Station
The manta's come here to this coral outcrop to get cleaned by the little fish
Swimmers on the surface
The swimmers are about 65 feet above me. The clarity of the water in Yap is amazing! It is often crystal clear to 125 feet. You have to really watch your depth.
Fins
New to diving in currents I was often looking at my fins while Alex held on to me.
