Dry Tortugas....con't
While I was snorkeling, Alistair had my camera and got some unique shots......for eg. this one of a sea plane landing...........:o) This one is for you....Roy!
sea Plain without the added scenery!
And colourful birds around the island. Actually there are over 600 species of birds that live, or migrate through this little island every year. Besides the snorkelers, and history buffs, most of the day visitors with us were avid bird watchers.........not difficult to tell a bird watcher......the enormous zoom lenses that weighed more than their bodies and the Tilly hats were a dead give away!! But the birds were beautiful!
Private sail boats and yachts came to anchor off the island for the day but most of the visitors came by Ferry, with us, about 50-100 people in total, so the island was not crowded at all. Esp.inside the Fort itself. Our Ferry is the only large boat allowed to visit the island.
This made for a very peaceful, quiet, and relaxing day!!!!!
LEAVING FORT JEFFERSON
After a wonderful day, we left for Key West.
Sun, snorkeling and walking, made for some very tired passengers on the way home. Most people were asleep. :o))) I count 3 in this shot.
Cute couple!!
We passed this Cruise Ship while pulling into dock in the harbour.
Our pier! Made some friends and had a great time aboard the boat....the end to a wonderful day!!
