This is the result of eating my chocolate brownie!!
We had an early morning this morning, most were around by 9am! so we got a wriggle on and headed over to Norman Island for an epic day of water type stuff!
We dived the Indians, it was spectacular, we saw more peas, I spotted this one and Richie kicked me out the way to take a picture!!
This is another one he found that was more of a brussel sprout
It was then on to Norman and Angel Fish, here is a picture of Shelton for his mum!
and a cute fishy picture
There is talk of a night dive and wake boarding going on as I type, been a busy day!

The Bush wakers turned into a whole noisy affair and a game of catch phrase to boot, I thought it was going to get quite messy so I snuck off to bed!
This morning was a sluggish start, a hearty breakfast helped I think, followed by a dive just after breakfast, we made it to Green cay for the first time this season , always one of my favorites! I saw a Chained Moray eel, which is apparently quite rare!!
Heres some of Richies pictures
It was then on too White Bay for a lazy afternoon, some went to the beach, some hung out on the boat, the divers went for a dive, some more Richie pictures
Here is a pea, basically a tiny, baby, cow fish, it is the tiny speck in the middle
B roped his cousin in to helping with some chores
the nappy pose after, I believe they are holding hands!!
There was snorkeling
I went for my second ever kayak with my brother
an altogether rather busy day!

I was starting to get concerned about the guests by 9:30 this morning, if I had of been nursing I would have been checking their pressure areas in case of bed sores!! They were all fine and weathered last nights storm very well, they all slept through it, it was also a none event, there was no wind and just a lot of rain, hurrah thats what we like!
So after breakfast they visited Trellis Bay, a sail took us to Brewers Bay, we fished on the way but didn't catch, a few misses
We had a new helper with the dished too
We did our dive of the day at Brewers Bay and rather marvellous it was too, me and the kids saw the tiniest shark ever, it was so cute
It was then on to Cane Garden for the rest of the afternoon, the kids water sported, the big kids visited the beach and sampled the Bushwakers!!

First of all a few pictures from yesterday, the guys in Wreck alley, I can't believe how clear it was......
I like the diver in profile through the gap
It was a bit of a late night last night, there was fishing and catching.......
and there was a catch phrase epic saga
This morning, a sluggish start, then on to Saba rock for an explore
Looks like a good spot to me!
A cruise took us to Mountain Point for a dive, I did the shallows with the kids, Rich did a deeper one with the big kids and found a nurse shark!!
and an eagle ray!
Heres Ryan snorkeling
Off to the aeroplane for our second dive, haven't been in ages, it was as great as always, although a little more beaten up
A spinaker run took us to Marina Cay
some had a nap on the way!
where some of our brave souls did a night dive
There is supposed to be a bit of wind tonight, so we have battened down the hatches and we are off to bed!

Well it has been hectic again today, diving, sailing and a trip to the Baths!! This morning we started with a dive, I headed off to Cistern Point with my champion divers, it was rather fabulous, horse eye jacks, juvenille barracuda, pomento, some big barracuda, the kids are nearly as good on air as me!
The Big kids headed to Wreck Alley, the dive sounded spectacular, you will have to wait for pictures, Rich is busy and I don't touch his camera!!
We had a sail to the Baths and I finally got my brother to pose for a picture with me, I nearly got him smiling!
There was relaxing
and more relaxing but wetter
There was a big explore at the Baths, B and his cousin had a really good explore and came back all scraped and bruised!
The action continued with a sail over to the Chimney, where we did dive number 2, as spectacular as always, then to our final resting place in the north sound for the night!
