{FREEDOM!!!}

This was our FIRST dive together without an instructor. It was lots of fun. The coolest part of the day was the millions(literally) little bait fish that were EVERYWHERE. It's those kind that stick together and move together with each movement. The waters were swamped with them. That would have been shark or dolphin heaven. I was shocked they never once brushed up on my legs or anything. I thought for sure i would be able to touch one. At one point shane was completely surrounded by them and he looked like he was in a tornado. It was so cool.
 Bahahaha! This picture makes me laugh.

 Just some cool fish that were swimming in a school...
 These little fish are EXTREMELY interested in shane and i, even when taking our scuba lessons. They completely surround us. It's so interesting. It reminded me of Avatar when that guy gets surrounded by those little white jelly fish looking things, after he met that girl. ANYWAY.
 This picture above is some soft coral. There are hills and hills of soft coral under the water. It's beautiful. I only WISH our eyes could see the colors  as they really are.It would be amazing.
visibility wasn't that great this day. BUT you can see the hill of soft coral....
 Here's one of the beautiful blue clams. This picture doesn't show the magnificent blue it is with just your eyes. Even then, i wonder how more beautiful it would be if we could see the true color.  These clams are so pretty and even parts of it looks like its glowing.
We are certified to go down to  60 feet and that's what we did. :)
