Mid-winter is a good time to escape to warmer surroundings, so I spent almost three weeks over January and into February in Micronesia. This was the reverse of a trip I made almost 10 years ago. So after a night spent in Guam, the first destination was the island of Yap, part of the Federated States of Micronesia. We had good shark action, but the mantas were being a bit shy this week. Perhaps due to the high winds we experienced all week?
