On a Shark Diving Cruise

So, Flat Mr. Hunter and his friend Gail flew to Ensenada, Mexico last fall, boarded a small boat, and headed far out into the Pacific Ocean.  Their purpose?  To go on a great white shark dive!  

Gail's the one who actually did the diving.  Flat Mr. Hunter is certainly intrepid and waterproof enough to go diving with great white sharks, but he didn't want his laminated self to end up causing any trouble for divers or sharks, so he stayed on the boat.  He did pose for a few pictures with the shark cage and the home port of Ensenada, just so the rest of us could get a taste of their adventures.

Swimming with sharks is not advised!

Thanks to Gail for letting Flat Mr. Hunter tag along on an adventure unlike any other!
