Be Amazed!

These are the words that suddenly pop into my mind as I am 50 feet below the water's surface staring up at a column of rock that is over-adorned with every conceivable hard and soft coral, with a million (yes, I mean a million)fishes in the most dazzling color hues that any human mind can possibly imagine (even those minds with chemical enhancements). There is no greater "high" than the thrill one gets from displays by Mother Nature(God), such as this. Be amazed! So in fewer words, we had a great dive at the "chimneys" on Namena Reef. The anchorage is a bit suspect as we are quite exposed while we cling to the edge of a tiny island on their mooring ball. We had a pretty stiff wind blowing us onto shore and we finally chickened out and dropped our own anchor several 100 yards further out. We were convinced that we were dragging the mooring ball (should have put our dive gear on and checked!) We are the only boat here. There are six guest "bures" (houses) on the island, but they are on the other side, so it is pretty quiet here.
