This afternoon I went to Jeannie's to nap, soak up some sun, and swim. It was nice for sure, but I was a bit disappointed.
About one week ago, I went to Jeannie's for dinner and to enjoy the waterfront in the early evening. It was such a nice time! You know, when it's just what you were looking for? So I wanted to go back, to recreate that feeling. I also wanted to swim there because some ladies said they saw many cool fish while snorkeling there.
The afternoon was nice, for sure. Cause there was sun and water and I got to swim and nap in the dappled sun/shade of a palm tree. Rough aye?
But I was kinda disappointed too. The water was calm at the beginning of my swim. But got rough at the end. So when I came out, I was a bit sea sick. Yes, for a swimmer, I'm wimpy that way. There was one spot with a good number of pretty fish. But there was also lots of construction debris. Not especially pretty.
But, I did learn about Sea Treking and Snuba. Both enable you to "scuba" without being a diver. With snuba, the tank is on the shore. There's a hose attached to it, and to a regulator which you breathe with. You use normal scuba goggles. Sea Trek is similar but you put your head in a big white metal helmet with a visor. I'm assuming there's also an air tank on shore and you're connected with a hose. I was considering trying one of them, until I saw that there wasn't that much to see underwater in that area...

1 - me trying on the Sea Trek helmet. It was heavy-ish. But the real ones way about 45 lbs!! Or maybe kg!! I can't remember....But it was really heavy when the really nice staff let me try pick it up
2-A little army of Sea Trek helmets ready to go. They put them on your head when you're already in the water. So you don't feel the weight I think.
3 - A mural showing you all the stuff you could see during your Snuba or Sea Trek adventure. Or maybe not....
4 - The outside shower at Jeannie's. Fun!
