Palau - Day 3 (Snorkel Trip My Camera) Part 2

This was our boat for the tour...We had 4 crew members
and 11 people...4 of us from the ship went on this tour...

















Here are some rock formations...These outcroppings are
nicknamed "mushroom islands" due to the wearing down
at the bases...They come in all shapes and sizes but a lot
of them do have a mushroom shape...





































This is a Japanese Zero...The only thing visible above
the water is the tip of the propellar...Due to the shallowness
of the water, the pilot was able to walk across the
reef to safety while it was low tide...The pilot came
back yearly to the plane while he was alive...
