THE NAME IS BOND.....JAMES BOND.....

A little out of sequence but want to back up to Staniel Cay. We stayed in Staniel for 2 days. While there we decided to take a dinghy trip over to Thunderball Cave (obviously where the James Bond movie Thunderball was filmed) and go snorkeling! Now, most of you know I DON'T like to swim in the ocean but at the risk of once again being left behind I reluctantly decided to go. After all...I COULD just sit in the dinghy and make sure everyone made it safely back. "Isn't this the job of the captain????", I am thinking! I noticed CTM had put two sets of gear in the dinghy. Was he thinking of picking up someone else on the way....maybe Pussy Galore???? Oh wait....that was Goldfinger!!!! When we got there it was obvious that this was probably an experience that I did NOT want to miss. So...after spitting in our masks....off we went! It was breathtaking (again sounding like Herbstreit, huh JPB)!!! CTM had pumpkin whole wheat bread for the fish and obviously they were needing their fiber because they would just swarm him when he would crumble it in the water!

O.K. I am thinking....where are those big fish that eat these little fish???? TIME TO GO!!!! Obviously the movie "Thunderball" is now on my Christmas wish list! Here are a few more pics of our experience.....



After CTM broke his little toe and I fell flat on my face coming out of the bar (involved a little rum :)) we decided it was time to move on to Georgetown! Catch you on the flip flop!

  1. That sure is a fine looking Whaler in the background.

  2. I agree with Dave, thinking that may be our dinghy next year.

    Ok girlfriend, so you do water after all. I will remember that next time.
