Whale Shark report - Wednesday 6 May 2009

Wow, what a way to start our Whale Shark Adventure today!  We had a whale shark even before the planes got in the air.  This 5m whale shark was completely surrounded by fish - very cool!

We shared this first whale shark for a little while before moving a little bit down the reef to a whale shark the plane found.  We had our second whale shark all to ourselves and had so many drops we lost count! He was a bit smaller - 3.5m or so - but very fat. Clearly he was ready to grow! This whale shark was more than content to let us swim and swim and swim...we're sure that was laughter we were seeing as he bobbed his head, mouth wide open as he swam along!

Chalk up another amazing day!
