Shark Tale

I am on Roatan for the last week which is part of Bay Islands just 50km of the coast. I did a lot of scuba diving, including night dive, and.. shark dive. The second was was amazing, and I have to admit that I was pretty nervous before we got into the water. The site with sharks is just off the marine park, and there are about 40 of them living together. Usually, divers are suppose to just stay against the wall, and watch the sharks, however our group was pretty small and composed of decent divers so we got to swim around with them.
When I got into the water I calmed down when I saw how peaceful they look, however you are always aware that they can bite. I took lots of pics and few movies, and most of the time I just couldn't keep track of all of them as they were coming at you from all the directions possible. Night dive was also very cool, we a bit freaky at first. You could only see where you pointed your lights and sometimes you can get really confused when you have no idea where's up or down or if you're going up or down.
I also started my Rescue Diver course but I got a bad ear infection half way through so now I have to eat medicine, out ear drops in, and eat pain killers all the time. It should go away in couple of days and then I'll be able to finish my course and do some more diving. Most likely I'll got to Utila from here which is an island next door, and fly back to Mexico City somewhere from here.
