Having visted just about every aquarium in the US, and living right next to the world-renowned Monterey Bay Aquarium, I get too used to seeing dynamic wildlife behind glass. Being able to swim with these creatures doesn't even compare. You simply HAVE to do it. And to the people such as Dave who asked "and what do we see on that sight"...I answer...you see lots of dots and not much, if any detail. However, those dots near the boats are a mix of people and rays, the resolution simply isn't sufficient to discern which is which. But...trust me...there are an equal amount of each. Check out this link to see qhat I mean. http://www.stingraycitytrips.com/photo_album/index.shtml BTW...this is the first time ever that I have seen this satellite image. What -I- found most exciting is that I zoomed -OUT- and finally got to see just how close we were to the edge of the reef. This edge, or "The Edge" as it's referred to locally, is where the true wildlife exists and danger lurks. It's as dramatic as it looks here, even with the resolution differences. WOW!
