We are in a bit of paradise right now, anchored in a pristine bay which is surrounded by live coral reefs with amazing fall colors and beautiful fish galore. The clarity in the next cove down, around the corner, was unbelievable yesterday; it is by far the best snorkeling of the trip so far and close to the best I have ever experienced. We have our camera loaded today inside the housing so that we can capture a bit of the beauty. Great white hunter, David, is about to arm himself with the speargun Julie and Casey gave him for Christmas last year, and the big parrot fish we saw yesterday better be hiding (my little wish :)) I always feel so sorry for any fish that we catch; they are all such beautiful manifestations of life. Oh well, guess I really shouldn't eat them!
We are at Isla Carada in Western Panama, and it is extremely peaceful out here among the little islands during the rainy season. The water is so clear today, even though we were blessed with a huge rainstorm last night; luckily we have not had the thunder and lightning that we were warned about. Jodie and Mike on Savannah are here with us and we are lucky they enjoy hangin' with us ol' folks! They harvested some oysters and made fresh ceviche for yesterday's second cribbage tournament. Fortunately for them, they skunked us the second game after we won the first. Today we are just enjoying the moments as they unfold.
