My heart is usually in the mountains but this outdoor adventure was underwater in the Caribbean island of Bonaire. I learned to scuba dive during college at the University of Miami but I hadn’t been diving for many years. I joined a group of friends from Boone on a week-long diving trip to beautiful Bonaire. I did 12 dives during the week but the most memorable was a day with an instructor for a sea horse education course. During the two dives, we saw eight sea horses (which we never would have spotted on our own!), a huge eagle ray, a hawksbill turtle, and multiple green turtles. Our guide had an underwater GoPro and snapped some fantastic photos with me and the very curious hawksbill turtle.
