We woke to a drizzle and heavy clouds.
But we had to see if the underwater visibility was better at Bailey’s Key. It was! Manon collected the underwater data today and turns out that Kami still has no concept of personal space. She was all over Manon, including swimming on top of her. This sequence was captured with the GoPro facing backward. In the featured photo, you see …
This was the smoothest travel day we have ever had to Roatan from Florida. Driving the 2 hrs with hardly any cars on the road at 7 AM. The Miami airport was calm and our TSA lines short!
