Lanie beholds a loggerhead sea turtle
Yesterday we went snorkeling. We stopped at 3 places. First we went to Hol Chan, which is where there is a channel in the barrier reef. We saw some sea turtles and lots of fish.
After that we went out to lunch. The restaurant served breakfast all day. For lunch I got banana pancakes.
Exploring the deep with the Brookses
Zoe and I climbed a coconut tree and picked coconuts for the restaurant. After lunch we went to a place called Shark and Ray Alley. We saw a bunch of nurse sharks and sting rays. We got to pet a shark.

The third place was called Coral Gardens. Our guide said we were going to see a hammerhead shark there, but he was only teasing us. We did see 3 manatees and a lion fish.
Cool coral
Not a hammerhead
Nadia, glad to hear from you again. I didn’t know there were so many kinds of sharks, very informative. Hope you’re enjoying your last couple of weeks. Can’t wait to see you all in May.
