Six days into the journey and I am 50 shades of brown. Sam's improving her tan quite nicely, starting from "paper white" to "a shade different than before/one shade up from ass-white" (Magill) . For a comparison on the coral color chart, Sam is about a B1, Magill is a D2, and I'm about a E5, shoulder E6. No burns in sight for me, Sam though, another story.
Today we went back out to the Elkhorn coral site, and the valley before the site reminds me of the scene from Finding Nemo where they should have swam through the valley instead of going above into the jellyfish. It's pretty intense. ALSO I saw a green turtle for the first time, so now I don't feel pressured to wake up at 6am to go early-morning snorkeling.
We had baked fish for dinner which was pretty funny.
The total mosquito count for today: 45
