Snorkling in the Virgin Islands

Here is a picture of me snorkling in the Virgin Islands. It was so awesome. I cannot describe the blue water in the Virgin Islands. It is like a blue that I have never seen before. And the sands on the beaches of St. Maarten was like silk. (They even sold it!) When I was snorkling (I have been before, but it has been awhile), the fish were about 2" from my mask. It was amazing. When I came up, my guide told me that the mask is magnified 25% to make things look bigger, and closer. I wonder how close up those fish were to my face!!!
