Most of the other on the boat were finishing up their dives for their open water certifications today, so it was a bit busy. After breakfast, we moved to Sven's Reef, the next reef over, about a 20-30 minute boat trip. Howard went off to dive and Kirsten went off to snorkel. The snorkel group was larger this morning as Jeff joined in due to congestion issues that kept him from diving; Amanda also joined in and tried to teach Carrie how to dive down toward the reef; as well as 2-3 others who washed out of the scuba open water classes. Kirsten happily saw a turtle at the very beginning of the first snorkel of the day, an epic of about 1 hour 40 minutes. After lunch, the boat moved to the other side of the reef for a different dive/snorkel spot, then back to the lagoon for the night dive.
