Title: WOW! What kind of ray was that?

Blog Entry: I went diving yesterday with a couple of customers and wow the water was soo nice. Warm, clear and full of fish. We found two baby white-tip reef sharks sleeping under a rock at Virador and down at 70 feet there were thousands of half moon jelly fish. There were so many that I was almost hypnotised, the song from the Beatles kept going through my head (Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds) . We found a really nice octopus free swimming, he was changing colors and trying to change his shape to look more like a rock. Very Cool. After we passed the jelly fish there were six big pregnant white-tip reef sharks napping in the sand. Virador was so great for the first dive we decided to dive the second dive hoping for a repeat. We were not let down, it was great but with an added surprise. We came across a ray that I have never seen before and I have 1000s of dive here. We were fixen to make the safety stop when I saw something stirring up the sand,and the end of a rays tail sticking out of the cloud. We all watched and waited and finally we were able to see the ray. This ray was about 4ft in diameter and was a grayish color with a thick tail that is very thick at the base.????
