 shoe-tree Good evening, I apologize for not sending this sooner but I totally forgot about it! I got an e-mail today asking what ever happened to the shoe tree we were building? Well here it is in all it’s glory sitting proudly above the shores of Saint Joris Bay for all to see! What we did was carry a big driftwood tree with lots of branches out of the water and up to this cliff. We then hauled rocks and placed them as anchors at the base of the tree and finally collected bags and bags of flip-flops over and shoes from the waters edge to use as decoration. Not only did we clean up the shore line a lot we created a kind of “Trash Masterpiece” to be used as reminder to help keep this area clean! The flip-flops are all tied together with string and rope also from the shore that way they won’t easily fall off. This is the area we walk almost every day so you can kind of get an idea now where all your cacti and crab photos come from and where we find all our beach treasures and chunks of driftwood. You can see Inca here on the lookout for any dangerous lizards and Indi crashed under the shoe tree. The cliff Inca is standing on is also where all the fossil shells are popping out by the thousands, it’s one big sheet of limestone.
I did a macro dive today again at 1:30 but the visibility was terrible compared to yesterday. I had a difficult time today fighting the surge from the passing waves it made taking close-up’s almost impossible. You wouldn’t think a wave traveling over your head could go so far underwater as well but they do! I was at 50 feet today and could still feel a surge, and above 30 feet it was just a shower of sand!
Have a great evening and a wonderful day tomorrow, Barry
