The Manatees where so amazing today … they drift through waiting divers and roll as you scratch their bellies. Crystal River and Kings springs where busy as usual on a Sunday morning but the Manatees did not seem to mind. My sons and I enjoyed swimming and playing with the Manatees as well as the cavern in Kings Spring. This is a really good way to spend some time in the water by getting to know the gentle giants and I look forward to my next visit with the Florida manatees.

I hope each of you had a great time :)
 
Mike and I had a wonderful time...even though we aborted that dive. My light crapped out on me and since we were the last ones in the cavern, it really silted up. We decided to play around at the opening of the spring and had more manatees play with us...so it worked out better anyway.

American Pro was definately a good shop....I will be sure to recommend them in the future!
