2013.06.26, Wednesday - Last Day of Diving!

Dove Finnbar's Reef in the am.  3200/900; 55 min dive.  The cruisers were actually reasonable divers and kept their distance from the reef.  Saw a turtle, a juvy spotted drum, a pygmy filefish.  Fun and relaxing dive.  Short surface interval (in order to get the cruisers back to the ship).











Dove Anchor as the second dive.  3200/1000; 50 min dive.  Anchor is at ~40-45' so could not linger at the end of the dive.  Happened under a boat with ~30 snorkelers equipped with underwater scooters.  The DM's chumming the water for jacks - boo.



Off to Margaritaville on the bikes.  Lunch at Jack's Shack just 200 yds north of the pier.  Princess Victory in port along with a Royal Navy frigate from the UK.

Jerk chicken and a strong rum drink at Jack's (rum and ginger beer).  Watched the cruisers head for the dock as Victory blew final call on the ships horn.

Rode to Margaritaville.  Easily 2000 chaise lounges arranged on the beach.  A ghost town and closed with the ship leaving.



 



Walked up the beach to Osprey for BBQ, and more Mitch.  Will had keylime pie and I had chocolate rum cake with ice cream.
