The trip has been AWESOME so far! One of the crew...our AMAZING COOK/CHEF has an AT&T Aircard so we can sneak some access here and there! I'm sure EVERYONE will weigh 5 pounds more by the end of the trip!

Even Bruce says he doesn't have enough strength to push himself away from the table to stop eating her great cooking! :angry:

And the diving has been really good so far. This afternoon after lunch we are doing the town pier which is supposed to be amazing. Oh yes...several divers saw a spotted eagle ray on the last dive this morning!


p.s. Our mystery guest has been our very own Steve from Nekton corporate! Its been a blast diving with him as well as hanging out! :angry:

I wanted to take a quick minute to say it was great to meet everyone. I had a blast ... I am STILL only on Wenedsdays photo's, lots of editing to do. For all that missed the trip, you missed a great one.

The seas were so co-operative that we spent THREE DAYS on the north side (windward side) that runs next to a 2000 foot trench. I had thought I had heard whales in the area and whilst we were discussing it, sure enough, THAR SHE BLOWS, a mother and baby calf gave us a nce show for about 15 minutes.

the dolphins and turtles, eela, black tip reef sharks were fun...

I take lots of pictres , and the Fredricksted Pier in st. croix is an awesome dive , i did 1 hour 45 minutes on two separate dives and got some good shots of 5 different seahorses....
WOO HOO !

I am so wiped and have to go back to that thing called work tomorrow, but I'll check in tomorrow to see how everyone fared home.

Again, Kamala , thanks for making it a GREAT TRIP !!!!!!!!!

Trip reports are now split off from the original trip thread.

I'm diving vicariously through your pictures at this time of year!
