I got out early today!  I woke up before the alarm went off.  I got down to the beach and decided to swim first since it was so nice.  I was having a great snorkeling morning watching a school of about thirty Unicorn fish zipping around when a turtle appeared under me!  I swam with it for a while!  It was great to see a turtle!  When I came in I could see people hanging around the stand up paddling spot so I hurried over there.  The guy in charge handed me a paddle and told me I had a board for the 9:00 a.m. paddle!   We paddled out by the huge outside reef.  It was so neat out there!  The waves washing over the reef were generating some swells to paddle over.  It was fun but after a few of them…. I was done out there!  I left the group and paddled around by myself for a while and then I came in.  I can’t believe I got out paddling three days in a row! I never expected that to happen.  It was still nice so I headed out for another swim/snorkel.  Then it was time to check out of the hotel and head back to Vidanta.  We will definitely stay at that hotel again!

Beautiful day!
