St Thomas/St John dive and snorkel pics

[gypsyjim]

Just a few pics from 3 day and 1 night dive here on St Thomas, with Red Hook Divers, and a few pics from today's quick trip over to ST Johns for some good snorkeling.

More later, but off to clean gear for tomorrow's dive.

On the ride to the night dive we spotted a funnel cloud/ware spout a few degrees left of the setting sun. By the time I grabbed reset the camera to land it was fading, but is still slightly visible in this pic:

A few pics from yesterday's snorkeling on St John:

One of the dives with Red Hook divers in St Thomas. I owe the fellow dead center at the stern, in the dark shorts a huge thanks, because he was the one that found my camera, two days after I lost it.

I agree. My favorite is still Bonaire, but I will be returning to the VI again, sometime down the road.

Now I am counting the days till Bonaire this June!
