Snorkeling and Sand Island Day

One of our days at Peponi saw us go on a 1/2 day trip snorkeling and visiting a sand island with the resorts boat.  It was a wonderful experience.

An older Italian couple, and a couple of moms with a child or two each from Arusha (we didn't really know them but we did recognize them) came on the boat/trip with us ...

 Just watching the crew work this old style 'Douw' boat was a great experience.  It took alot to work the sail and it was fun to experience the whole workings

After a day or two of gentle pushing and encouragement, PJ got Kaia to go snorkeling with her!  Here they are ... it only lasted a few minutes but we are proud of our girl!

 Here is the view from the shade shelter of our Douw boat.  Ahhh ... the life ....

Of course the only reason why we could visit this sand island was because of the extreme tidal action .... stay too long and the island is gone!

The older Italian couple took a real shine to Theo ... and it was fun when he started trying to work out how this powerful water/squirt gun worked ... he kept everyone on the boat entertained for the voyage home.
