Sunday

Since yesterday's snorkeling experience was so awesome we decided to do some more today! We snorkeled at Coral Gardens but did not see much this time. The sun wasn't as bright so the colors of the reef were quite muted. No "big" (rays, turtles, etc) sea life either. After Coral Gardens we headed over to Smith's reef. We got to feel like "old pros" there b/c we could explain to another couple where to enter the water & where the reef was. The highlight of this snorkel trip was spotting a ray. I definitely recommend both Coral Gardens and Smith's reef as great snorkeling sights. Coral Gardens is much more popular but Smith's reef is shallower so you get to see much more "small" reef life like christmas tree worms, anemones, etc.

One of the guys Dewey & I work with has relatives that live in Turks & Caicos. He told us they work at a restaurant & bar called Calico Jack's in the Ports of Call Plaza near Grace Bay. We decided to head over there for dinner since we figured they would be showing the Super Bowl. Dewey had a burger and I had the Grouper sandwich. The food was good and the ambience was okay. It was fun to eavesdrop on the group there to watch the Super Bowl. It was quite a mixed crew. Overall it was a good dinner....not one of best but pretty good.
