Oh haaaaaiiiii! Did you miss me? Don’t say no. It’ll crush me.

Day two we woke up to the clearest water I’ve ever seen. Well, technically we woke up to the sights and sounds of that Carnival ship off our balcony. But that ship was in the clearest water I’ve ever seen. So, that’s something.

We disembarked and got on a small boat and headed to Isla de Pasion. (Add a tilde over that ‘o’ in Pasion, for me will ya?)  We passed a yacht from Australia, a rusted sunken ship, and came upon this…
