MSC created this "private island" as a marine reserve. It had previous been an industrial waste dump
The effort took several years and work is ongoing as trees and flora grow and marine life increases The view of the island from the ship
	A bizarre incident as we walked to pick up our snorkeling gear A golf cart backed up, hit a light pole knocked it down and as it fell it hit me on the back of my leg. Immediate icing helped and we proceeded with our day
We got our gear and found a shady spot next to a rented cabana The snorkeling equipment was excellent (Aqua Lung) We snorkeled across the lagoon, saw fish and a "lemon shark" which we were assured does not bother people
Looking UP	Joe is relaxing too
