Saturday Oct 8

We got up late today just because we could.

We had signed up for a submarine tour with the Atlantis. Was that ever a neat thing. They had sunk several objects to make artificial reefs with great success. We saw nearly every fish on the identification card plus sea turtles and a black-tipped reef shark. Wow! What is really neat is that this is what Rob sees when he dives here. I got to see what he had been talking about

I did not get seasick on the boat out to the submarine. The waves were about 4 – 8 feet tall. Not really bad.

We got to the docks at about 4:00 p.m. The ship didn’t sail until 8:00 pm, so we had plenty of time to check in. We went through several security searches and photo taking. We each have a card with our names on them. Whenever we leave the ship, we have to show photo id plus this card to get back on. How embarrassing if we lose them.
