Turks and Caicos, Jan.22, 2012

Baracuda
Hawksbill Turtle
This morning we snorkelled at the place Ian went to yesterday on his own. Unfortunately, although they are pretty stunning fish, we saw an adult lionfish on the reef. They don't seem to be as excited about them here as in Bonaire. There were queen angels, scrawled filefish, porcupine fish and several other varieties but it wasn't a great spot. Smith's Reef was a better place to spend our afternoon. There was so very much to see: porcupine fish, scrawled filefish, trumpet fish, queen angels, a French angel, a school of horse-eyed jacks, bar runners, mutton snapper, graysby, turtles and a pair of ocean trigger fish. Wow! Ian has yet to take a photograph otherwise I would include one here.
Roast chicken dinner was enjoyed next door, hosted by T and K. We watched two football games today and I cheered for both losing teams.
