Hi Everyone,
We started our Day at 8am to go and swim with Manta Rays, and what a wonderful sight, we swam with 5 Manta Rays, they were so big, I thought one was going to swallow me,
They where so graceful, and they danced and spun a round, they were about 10ft wide, then they would swim down deep and go back and ride the tide and turn and do it all again.
We went to go to another island to find a village as the one we are on the chief has died and his son hasn’t had his ceremony to make him the chief yet so we still have to find one.
As the last island it was Sunday and all the men were at church and the women cooking so we still haven’t given our roots away yet.
We sailed away after our swim but we had 25/30 knots of wind and you couldn’t see the reefs so we turned back to the Manta Ray bay.
We are hoping to swim tomorrow again before we move off, going to go the other way as there were too many reefs.
Hope everyone is Ok, lots of Love Mum & Dad – Margaret & Alan xxxxxxxxxxx=
