Comments	Our fourth trip so clearly we like it. Shockingly we took a day off from diving to just plain relax and it felt great. Probably won't try it again, though. Weather was generally fine; it hadn't been raining so there were no mosquitoes. We did end up diving on the south side due to winds from the north. The south side has more coral cover and was every bit as enjoyable as the famous wall. All the dive guides take their roles in safety and creature finding seriously and both Gay and Michelle found us some exotic fish and creatures. And I found my first pipehorse. They are aggressively culling lion fish and it shows. We did see a few but not on every dive. They were incredibly conscious of our various food issues including cooking separate versions of many dishes just for us. And all of the food was delicious as in the past. My underwater ratings are on the world scale and are at the top of the Caribbean scale.

UW Photo Comments	There's a sink reserved for cameras by the wetsuit racks. But it would only hold one camera (fortunately I was the only one who used it). On boat there's a small rinse tank which could not accommodate three cameras and a table top reserved for cameras.
