Haigh Quary Kankakee - It really is a pretty great place to dive in Illinois and fantastic for scuba training lessons. Although when Molly came upon this 2010 video, she couldn't help but chuckle at the "Caribbean of the Midwest" line. Visit Yap - Yeah, it's in Micronesia which doesn't count as Polynesia...Sean was definitely wrong about that one. Eagle Rays in Tahiti - This is what Molly remembers her eagle ray experience to be like. They're especially amazing from the side views, that's how we were watching them. Cuttlefish Camouflage - Couldn't find a video quite like what Sean described, but cuttlefish are amazing!
