Rupa feeding a turtle some coral while diving the Tiputa Pass in Rangiroa.  There are only a couple of dive sites in Rangiroa, but every day is a unique experience.  Today we saw a turtle, a few dolphins, and a couple dozen white-tipped reef sharks.

Hats off to friendly folks at TOPDIVE, who did a great job getting us back into diving and making sure we were comfortable in the water.
