As planned, we had our morning trip with a 7.30am launch. It had been raining all night and it was still a bit drizzly this morning. We had to pick our site carefully as there was quite a bit of swell too. We got one beautiful shark coming to the boat and as we only had 5 clients who wanted to go into the cage, I decided to get into a wetsuit too! I eventually got into the cage but the shark didn’t come back and we didn’t get any others :-( Then the anchor line broke or may have been bitten off by a shark so we finished for the day once we recovered the anchor using the second buoyed rope also attached to the anchor as a back-up.
We didn’t go riding after all as it was Swap Shop day! We had 140 children bringing recyclables and were kept very busy for a couple of hours! Of course, after that we had to reward ourselves with a visit to the pub! I had 2 beers and even now (at 9.30pm), I’m still feeling squiffy!!!!!
We have been told that the trip planned for tomorrow has been cancelled as the weather is not looking so good. So instead we are going on a trip to the southerly-most point of South Africa where we are hoping to snorkel with rays!!
