Churches and Sea Turtles

We started off the day by checking out a church in the rocks.  While walking to the church we heard gun shots.  I wasn't 100% sure if they were gun shots or something else.  Getting closer to the church we saw two army guys on a bench and a sign saying that nearby was an army shooting range.  We asked the men if we were able to go to the church and they said it wasn't a problem.  After checking out the church I asked the men if I could take a photo with them.  They were really nice and said yes, but told me that I couldn't post the photo on social media.  Then we checked out another church that was on a hill.  We got to enjoy some nice views from the top.  Then we went to a beach to cool off.  We weren't that happy with the beach we went to because it was too crowded.  Then we went to a beach called Turtle Bay.  Many times when places have a name of something in it, you usually do not get to see it or experience it.  However, as soon as we arrived we saw a sea turtle! It was AMAZING!!! Luckily I had my waterproof camera with me.  I was able to see 3 different sea turtles, swim with them and get great videos. Then we went to the Blue Lagoon, but since it was twilight the water color wasn't impressive.  For dinner we tried to go to one restaurant, but since we didn't have a reservation it was impossible for us to eat there.  We went somewhere else and had really nice food.  It was one of the few times that we didn't share a meal, but each had our own.  To end the meal the restaurant gave us a free shot of Commandaria, the oldest wine in the world. It was a nice way to end the meal.
