Here is a picture of a parrot fish feeding on a brain coral. He is at least four and a half foot long. This photo is deceiving on the size image. We think this is the same one we saw yesterday. It was sure fun to swim with him.

Here is a cute "cleaner" fish. He is call a French Angelfish. He is a juvenile Notice also the conch at the bottom of the photo.

Here is also a parrot fish with lots of red on him. He is called a Stoplight Parrot fish. Laying on the bottom in the sand is a grouper.

Here is cool shot of a fish called a Mutton Snapper in the juvenile phase.

We think these are called Blue Tang fish. I love how they smile at me.

Here is a huge fish that we think is a type of snapper. We think it is a Mutton Snapper.

This is a beautiful Grouper.

Here is a shot of the sunset tonight taken from our deck.

What a wonderful day! We awoke to a beautiful, calm, sunny day. Perfection once again. After breakfast, Richard hurried out to fish. I watered all the new coconut trees. Then I raked the beach and sat around. It was time for a kayak ride. The water was smooth and clear of course. I saw Richard out fishing. He caught one bone fish today. We decided to have an early lunch so we could get over to our favorite snorkel spot.

We arrived at Bloody Bay and the water was gorgeous. The water was so warm, there is no adjustment getting in. We saw that giant parrot fish again. This time he was feeding.

I saw a giant stingray just laying on the bottom resting. We went over to a different spot on the wall and the coral was so huge and colorful. We were looking for turtle, but found none. Then this evening there was one right in our "boat landing" in front of the house. He was there last night too, only on the other side of the mangrove.

There was a beautiful sunset tonight. We were enjoying it while I was fixing the chicken from hell. The little bugger would not get done. Never again! He was tasty after all. We wanted to go to Karaoke tonight at the Beach Resort. Then Richard decided we would be too late as he is going deep sea fishing tomorrow at 6:00 A.M. We will do that next Friday night for sure.

I always feel that I should type more. There are so many little details that we experience that are so meaningful to our day. Just being here is such a gift.
