On the way back, we took a different fork down towards Reef Bay.  It was along this trail that we came upon some petroglyphs. 

They were getting worn away, we believe, because in the rainy season the area becomes a waterfall. 

The petroglyphs dated to sometime in the 900s AD. 

This part of the trail was getting busy and we met several people along the way. 

By this time it was getting towards noon and we were ready to head back.  So, we opted not to follow the trail to the sugar cane factory ruins.  Our legs were definitely tired, as our knees were giving out on the downward slopes. 

I was able to take several interesting pictures and am hopeful that they turned out. 

Along the way, we saw what looked to be goats with curved horns as well as some deer. 

It felt good to get some exercise and the hike was a great length. 

After lunch, Steve went snorkeling along the far side of the bay while I opted to sit in a float behind the boat.  The water in Lameshur Bay was such a glorious turquois color that I wanted to soak it up while I could.  We were planning to leave today, 3.29.23, because the wind was getting ready to shift to the southeast.  That meant that we wouldn’t have as much protection as we were enjoying in the bay.
