Just uploaded this morning...new video. On our dive yesterday, Ron filmed the manta as it crossed over us. To set the seen, I was laying on my belly looking up at a "cleaning station" places that the manta know there will be fish to clean their skin of parasites. Leslie was to my left. I felt the dive master tap my leg and turned to look at him. He pointed off in the distance. I tapped Leslie and she looked too. We saw the manta "flying" towards us. I rolled over on to my back to watch. The manta flew right over the top of me, no more than 10 feet away.

In this video, the first stream of bubbles you see are mine and the second are Leslie's. The video is here www.justusconsultants.com/manta2.mpg.

It looks like we may dive again on Tuesday.
