We spent two nights at The Bight on Norman Island.
The main reason is that I wanted to get a scuba dive in with my sister. We've never dived together even though in "the old days" she was a master dive instructor in the Florida Keys and had her captain's license and ran a dive boat. All that said, she had not dived in 15 years. Two years since my last open water dive.

So here is a picture of my stepdaughter "The Mooring Hooker" showing how she got her name. My son in law took this picture and posted it on facebook. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/jester.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/duh.gif" alt="" /> Right after this the boat ahead of us left and we did it again. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Wink.gif" alt="" /> So we got the first mooring, right next to pirates.

Blue Water Divers out of Nanny Cay (http://www.bluewaterdiversbvi.com/) picked up my sister and myself and took us scuba diving. They were awesome! We did an easy dive at 12-35ft depths at Kelley's Cove just outside The Bight on the NW side. Then went to Pelican Island and did a more challenging dive in 35-60 feet of water.

After diving and lunch the crew took the dingy to The Caves.
I took a nap!
Then I had to show them how to run down an inverted Kayak and dive off (ok, fall off) the end. This started the Inverted Kayak Games that lasted for 2 hours!

Had a wonderful lobster dinner at Pirates with the rugrats on the boat under the watchful eye of Seahorse Trainer.
