I got to snorkel on the Red Sea. Yup, last Friday Tim and I joined a group of folks on a boat that took us 17 miles away from shore where we checked out 3 different coral formations.... I was in the water face down for over 6  hours looking at coral and colorful fish.... it was awesome.... a lifetime memory event. It was my anniversary present from my hubby. Tim went with me but this was a record for him to go so far out on a boat. He even jumped in the water a couple of times! He did not like the current carrying him away so fast from the boat but he did not panic and swam right back to the boat. Then he just jumped in to get wet again later on. I was proud of him for going. We both loved hanging our legs off the side of the boat and letting the water splash us on our ride back to land. We especially loved the school of dolphins that swam along side us so close that they almost touched our dangling feet. I saw.. a small stingray, an orange jelly fish.... and a tire.... tee hee... along with lots of other beautiful fish and coral formations! It was so clear down there... wow! Well .... here are a few pictures. Enjoy!

I did not have the camera handy when we saw the school of dolphins.... and no it is not just a fish tale.... :) .... God Bless you all!!!
