KSC AMBASSADORS: WETTSTEIN FAMILY
memories and leave the rest behind for the future. She is in her zone. Perfectly focused and ready for the shot. Smil- ing and happy as can be. She signals me a huge “OK,” and I know all is good.Anoth-
er “WOW!” Her wish granted as out of the blue comes a juvenile whale shark.. He poses inches from her lens, and she has the shot.
Jos (age 14) is busy being Brad Holland’s diving model. Brad is the professional pho- tographer on the Manta Ray Bay Resort. It’s a perfect fit — a teen diver who has her
buoyancy and diving down like a master diver. She is so into the dive that she doesn’t even notice all of the attention she is getting by the photographer. And for this short 60 minutes or so, she gets to spend with the loves of her life, manta rays and sharks. Jos is in heaven right now, and there is no interrupting her. She’s just soaking in the experience. These moments at Kids Sea Camp are so magical.
Jeff, my husband, is taking the opportunity to spruce up his photography skills and is loving it. He has been spoiled having
Brad spend a week with him, sharing tips of the trade. He
is pumped to be using his newfound skills. And I even have a few photos of him tak- ing photos, which is rare since he is always the one shooting the photos (thanks to Brad for that).
And me, I’m just thrilled
to share this unforgettable journey toYap and Palau with my family.This type of experi- ence cannot be purchased in any store or found in some prepackaged deal online, and it’s not going to be on a cruise ship or in a theme park.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity created and personally hosted by Kids Sea Camp, for us to all connect and embrace the majesty of the underwater world.We don’t have to say a single word. We just look at each other and smile when we surface. We all know what each other feels; it’s plastered all over our faces.“WOW!” Oh my good- ness, how could it possibly get any better?
Kids Sea Camp is the per- fect family experience and is a trip of a lifetime.
Thanks so much to Margo.
