Well, eventful the day certainly was.   A good sail down from Mustique was followed by some great snorkelling on the reefs at Tobago Cays, where we saw turtles, sting rays - and oh yes, a shark with an unhealthy interest in us.
 
We were snorkelling around, I was taking photos, Anette tugging my arm now and then to show me more fish or coral or whatnot, and then suddenly Anette squeezes on my arm hard!   I turn, look and expect to see another Ray, but no, I see a shark.  First looking at us, then swimming away then coming back, but eventually swimming off.   Anette surfaces to shout "quick swim after it and take some photos!"   I think ".....she's obviously been reading her book on 'How to kill your husband"   Anyway we did swim around looking for it for a while, before deciding that we would make a poor supper for it.   Well me anyway!
 
And the sunburn?  oh yes, we did have some too........
