So I found an interesting article on Shark Defense that says that old rumor that your s'posed to try to whack a shark on its nose to dissuade it from attacking you is not true. Instead You are supposed to Gouge at its eyes because sharks noses according to this article are actually "quite sturdy" imagine that! I keep thinking about how our (not so) distant reletives the chimpanzees have on demand developed the amazing ability to throw their own excrement when under attack. Hmmm, I digress, Heres the link:

First time I got to go on an international snorkel/dive trip was to Belize in 1981. I was fifteen and we drove down in a Datsun Pickup full of dive gear, and a portable compressor, back then it was hard to find a place to fill your scuba tanks, years later I decided it was time to take a break from my Job and see Belize through a greybeards eyes, to say that San Pedro Belize has changed is an understatement, they even have a hyperbaric Facility. I will post here about snorkeling,traveling, and stuff that happens along the way. Thank You for visiting! Burnie Archives
