And I Still Don't Believe It!

     Next to Staniel Cay is an Island called Big Major Spot, and on that island is a local attraction.  When I first heard about this, my curiosity went through the roof.  How many opportunities do you get to see swimming pigs?  And I still don't believe it!   (Don't forget to click on the photos to enlarge the photo and return to the blog by hitting the back button.  You have to see the enlargements!)





Left photo - Charge of the pork brigade!
They lay in the shade on the island until they hear your dinghy motor.





Right - It's an amphibious assault!   The pigs will actually swim out to your dinghy for food.



Left - Having overshot the first dinghy the pigs turn on the second dinghy.
Note - to the left of the pigs are small fish jumping out of the water. 





Right - Success, the second dinghy has food.





Left - Mrs. Big Pig gets upset as Sharon's food supply is exhausted.
  




Right - Sharon retreats to the water after Mrs. Big Pig steps on Sharon's  foot.




Left - Captain Rick (M/V Broulee) steps in to protect the women as Deb (M/V Broulee) photo documents the action and Sharon watches from the water.




Right - The only injury suffered in the scrimmage was Sharon's foot and her pride.  The only thing Sharon could say was " My dad would want to know why I was feeding pigs while being barefoot?"
NOTE TO FAMILY AND FRIENDS - SHARON IS OKAY!
