During our recent scuba adventure aboard the Sun Dancer II, we stopped for a short land excursion to Half Moon Caye. During our morning visit to the island, we saw iguanas, red-footed boobies and a lovely stretch of white sandy beach. We enjoyed seven wonderful days of diving on the Lighthouse Reef Atoll – about 50 miles east of the mainland of Belize and Half Moon Caye rests on the southeast side of the atoll. Here’s my dreamy shot of the beach, palm trees and Peter gazing out to sea while the Sun Dancer II patiently awaits our return.

It is absolute HEAVEN, Cathy! My camera broke on day 2 (the camera I brought when my Nikon died!!)… so I’m grateful Barry has a new iPhone6… better than mine. But… oh, how I keep wishing I had my underwater camera back. Luckily, I got photos on our first snorkel. It’s just stunning! THIS should be your next destination; you’d really love it!

Thanks, Amy. I wanted to get a shot of the boat from shore and those palm trees and the benches with Peter enjoying the view seemed to frame it nicely.

Dreamy is an discription for this shot. What a life. What a place. I wouldn’t ever want to leave. Your husband’s level of relaxation, even in silhouette, is obvious. Beautiful!

We saw lots of Morays on our dives this last trip. Lots of large green ones, and smaller spotted ones. The green ones were a little too friendly!

That looks like a tropical paradise, Cathy — quite a remove from the chilly bus stop where I was standing with Milton, who foolishly wasn’t wearing a jacket, just a little while ago.
