Main Street, Grand Turk
Local musicians entertain the stragglers from the cruise ship -or shall I say the adventurous? It's actually out of the way for them to venture into town.
The salinas: salt ponds. Salt was the island's most important export until 1962.

Diving at “The Tunnels” with Lucy & Andy
We were surrounded by blue chromis for the majority of the dive. It was like swimming in a cloud of them.
Too bad the colour didn't turn out on this one. A nice big nassau grouper.
Over the edge of the wall, into the blue!
Along the wall -it's 8000 feet down.
Into the first of the tunnels
The second tunnel was a bit skinnier -down & to the left then out.
A trumpetfish, hiding
This little trunkfish was blowing sand all over, looking for food.
Barracuda
This is an artificial reef. They're encouraging the growth of the coral by sending low level electrical current through the metal.
You can see the coral strapped on! Even though it doesn't look like much now, the process seems to be working.
My first seahorse!!!
So Cute!
Sorry, but I don't get tired of sunset pictures. We figure if the day comes that we're tired of sunsets, there's something wrong with us.

After hours at the Sandbar -that's the owner in the denim skirt.
Our flippered escort across the Caicos Bank
The patterns of the refracting light on the sandy bottom. Of course, photos never do this kind of thing justice. That's CJ's shadow in the forefront.
