Last full day, Friday - boat ride to Sting Ray sand bar in the AM

It is a twenty minute, glass-bottomed boat ride from Rum Point to Sting Ray sand bar out in the middle of the North Sound. While today's pictures show some of the action, Pop Pop was blocking view of Madison in the water, and his underwater camera took the day off. We hope it was just the battery. Madison and Nicholas waited to board at the Rum Point Iguana, a favorite grandchild hang-out. On the boat, De De and Madison were together as were Pop Pop and Nicholas. Madison got into the water with Pop Pop to see the big sting Rays. Madison's reaction was, "It was exciting to touch the sting rays (especially underneath where they are smooth) but it was even more exciting when they bumped into me." Nicholas was brave enough to touch a biggie, and get a gentle slap on his cheek. This was a really fun boat ride, especially touching sting rays and feeding them squid.
