Wednesday finally looked like the Bimini we are used to: sunshine and calm seas. We departed the dock in mid-afternoon and passengers were soon snorkeling at 3 Sisters. There was some trepidation regarding a nurse shark and lots of squealing when folks noticed the very curious remora. Lots of good fish and snorkel practice for everyone though. As we headed in search of dolphins, we were all confident that we would see many. They must have had other plans though, as we did not see them all afternoon. It is obviously disappointing for the boat passengers, but all understand that misses can happen (even on the nicest day) when hoping to see wild animals. It’s always good for the researchers to remind themselves too! We have very, very high hopes for Thursday so stay tuned.
Until then,
Kel
