    great pics knees! :thumb: :thumb: :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

    altho I did start to get teary eyed when the plane was taking off…………..

    Me too squiddy……everytime I look at those pictures. :crying: :crying: :crying: ? ? ?

    I do hope I find the videos……I put my underwater in movie mode and shot some squid in action….I knew you would love it.

    I guess everyone knows how much I fell in love with that little island. :rockbed: :band1: :palm1: :fish: :drive:

    Knees,

    Sounds like you really take advantage of the island-great trip report. You mentioned that you weren’t brazen enough to go in at Cemetery Reef. What happened? I also noticed that Smith Cove looked deserted in your snaps. We have never snorkeled there because every time we go it is packed. What’s the secret?

    Thanks,

    Gazzer

    Knees,

    Just put two and two together. You are the guy that had the leg cramp at CB. Let me know about Smith Cove question if you can. When we were there was late afternoon after the ships were gone.

    If you want, read my trip report from last year……we were out too far and I cramped up…..I don’t know why the beach was so empty….that was about 10:00 A.M. on a Thursday morning.

    Knees:

    Your shots are very nice indeed.

    If you were taking your photos with the same camera, and it can go underwater, your earlier shots might be just moisture on the lens creating a flare or a blur, depending on the lighting. (I discovered this effect happened on our new above-and-below water camera and didn’t notice it until we were home. Lost some good shots as a result.)

    Sure wish we had been so lucky to see more fish and coral formations. We thought we were doing good to find the starfish and here you go and get squid shots. My congrats and envy at the same time.

    Looking forward to seeing your next batch of shots.

    Gazzer,

    No, I am not the guy from CB…… :bouncelaugh: :bouncelaugh: :bouncelaugh: I am female….. ? ? What is your question about Smith Cove……I did not see it….

    We were at Smith Cove on a Sunday and again on a Thursday…it was not crowded at all.

    bobdenver,

    Maybe you did not see my question to you…….how was your vow renewal experience? I remember you from your first post about it and wondered how you did and hope you had a great time.

    Thanks for the input about my camera.

    I did leave the mini wide angle on after being underwater so that’s probably it, but I don’t understand the blur at Cemetery Beach……since we did not get in the water there…….wasn’t ready to test fate again after last year……. ? ? ? ? ? ?

    I tried to PM you but got a message that I don’t have authorization. I posted a reply to your question about the renewal of vows on Sat 21 below my primary Trip Report.

    I couldn’t PM you about the camera details or the starfish issue either.

    Maybe we can do it again next year…..that would be fun.

    Still not getting E-mail notices when posts have been replied to. ? ?

    Love your Botabano pics…..I mentioned in another post some of those we did not see…..don’t know why.

    Congrats on the house…….and on a lake……you’re lucky. ? ?

    You’ll just have to post more so you can send pm’s. All the same rules apply to pm’s as they do here though……I’ll go check your reply.

    You’re welcome sandpiper…..we love Grand Cayman.

    Just returned from Colorado……it was beautiful but a destination with the sea and snoreling is still my favorite.
