Here are some fish pictures from my trip.
The funniest looking fish I have ever seen!

The male hairy blenney will be next. It was too big of a file.

Darlene, your computer hic-cupping? :-) I like your juvenile french angel ... have you watched the dvd's yet? Denise

Hi Denise, I am having major trouble trying to download and it is not the file size. It lets me do everything and then the refresh page comes up. I just posted one in test and it went through fine. I am going to try again!
I got to see one of the dvd's and it was great but the one with your dive won't play and I really want to see that one!

baby turtle



This is the resident three flipper turtle over at Kline

So is this a good time to see baby turtles? I want baby turtles! Counting the days....

Thanks for hanging in there with the postings, Darlene...it was definitely worth the wait and effort! Nice shots. I'm homesick....anyone know what happened to the missing flipper? Must not have been a nice experience for the fellow. Thanks again for posting your beautiful pics...I just love them! Carole

I forgot to ask who owns the "headless" dog??!! LOL. Carole

Beautiful Photos!! Thank-you for posting!

The wonderful swimming dog is none other than "Brix", the wall walking dog of the water road. He has many talents including the fact that he didn't know how to swim when he decided to live with us. Showing good form isn't he?

If I can figure how how to do this, I am going to post a picture of his raft riding abilities as well.

Thanks everyone! I had so many good pictures this trip that I had a very hard time deciding what to post!
It was and I still think turtle nesting season when I was there so I got too see at least a dozen turtles if not more and the two turtle hatching releases were awesome. I do know that I saw one to three turtles every time I sailed on the Woodwind. The other times of year that I go I usually see at least one turtle on most trips over to Kline on the Woodwind. Here is the picture Sue was talking about of her dog Brix.

Great baby turtles pic!! And other pics are also great

The dog is named Brix????

Sheesh.

(I work for Brix Networks.)

Darlene, I love your pictures! I really like the puffer and the baby turtles. They are so cute! Thanks for sharing with us.

Darlene,

Again, you got some great photos - especially when you consider that you only snorkel! I can't tell you how many white spotted filefish I've chased around trying to get a good profile of them, and you get TWO together, in the 2 phases!!! Adorable photos of the turtles, and the puffer, too! You really are Darlene the Snorkel Queen! :D:D:D

Sue, I'm blushing! I really had a lot of pictures that made me happy this trip. It was very difficult choosing the ones to post!

Darlene, thanks for the great shots. I laughed out loud when I read the dog's name is Brix -- I thought, since he does not swim, that he sinks in the water like a ton of BRIX. I'm glad that he manages not to be afraid of the water even though he cannot swim.

Darlene - great pics - I know your frustration with trying to post!!! I too wanna see the baby turtles!!!!

Susan - you and Brix look great on the raft - is that Lisa hanging off the end!?!? I will send you an email tomorrow to catch up - I have been busy and then did another dive trip since we got home. I hope you guys had a blast in Florida!!!

Darlene, Thanks for your posts here and the photo cd you folks sent our way. They have brought back some great memories of the time we were able to spend together last month.

Are you ready to go back? I am!

You are the "Snorkel Queen"!!

Darlene,

Your baby turtle and turtle pictures were really great ones. I have never been lucky enough to see the turtles when they hatch. Thanks for sharing! The other pics were super too, makes me homesick for Bonaire.
