Taking the Lead

Two more dives are in the books, but his time I got to share the experience with my brother. Though my brother was SCUBA certified before me, I have more training, so I was able to take the lead to teach him a few things about diving and the marine environment. Studying all those fish for the past few months paid off because I was able to tell my brother what fish we saw after our dives. Some of the marine life we saw were balloonfish, smallmouth grunts, yellowline arrow crab, black long-spined sea urchin (Diadema antillarum), spotted drum fish, french grunts, scorpionfish, lobsters, spotted moray eels, and a lionfish.

In between dives, we went to Roseau to have lunch and explore. As we were walking to town, locals would briefly greet us with one local having a conversation with us. People on the island are friendly. When in town, we walked around some of the local souvenir stands since there was a cruise ship in town and they were all set up. We then had a delicious lunch. 




This evening we watched the sunset listening to a local jazz band during dinner. It was a pleasant way to wrap up a wonderful day.
