    Barefoot Kuata Day 2

    February 10, 2019 in Fiji ⋅ ☁️ 86 °F

    Yesterday's lunch buffet and beach-front dinner were great. (Walking you through the pictures after the noon selfie:) The best thing about yesterday was snorkeling with black- and white-tip reef sharks! Some were so close! Wow! Then, to top it off, the sunset was gorgeous!

    I was up around 05:45 this morning after having crashed hard early, probably too much sun. I watched the sunrise and the crabs doing crabby things on the beach. After breakfast, I took a short walk to a couple of places on the island, then wove a hat. Niko was great, but I felt like Lady Liberty after 😁.

    Then I took to the water. After a bit over an hour in the kayak, I grabbed a snorkel and fins for another hour or so. Another black-tip shark, which are rare to see so close to this very busy beach. Yay! I was so focused on the school of fish (Angel? Tang?) That I almost missed the shark altogether.

    I'm now at the bar waiting for lunch. With a little rum. Yo ho ho!

    So long [for now] and thanks for all the SHARKS. ✌️
