Been home 3 days and my head is still in the BVI. How long does that last?? Amazing trip. The ongoing quote of the week was "well this doesn't suck!" <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />

i know what you mean, ours has lasted 10 years so far, this is a diagnoseable condition you may have read about on this forum called "DIF" dreaded island fever, you can search it and learn more about it, I've never heard of anyone getting over it, it just gets worse with the number of trips you take - good luck and welcome to the DIF club!

Great!! BTW. Has anyone ever seen a Barracuda rub itself on a turtle? We were around Cooper and got some video of a Barracuda rubbing itself twice on what looked like a Hawksbill turtle. Also, had an Octopus attack the gopro when we went to check out our anchor! LOL!

Yes...the DIF sets in and does not REALLY improve until you've put a boat on hold for the next trip -- and even THEN, it stinks because you have to WAIT. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />

The only time I don't suffer from DIF is when I'm actually there.....it's an incurable affliction I'm afraid... <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/duh.gif" alt="" />

Gotta do some editing and will download to youtube. I will post a link when it's done. Got some good barracuda strikes while fishing too. Above and below water.
