The Great Barrier Reef
Friday, May 26th, 2006Have arrived in Cairns Tropical north Queensland, that means sunshine and 27c in the winter!!! COME ON:-)
It is also the place to hit the reef, well you can’t hit it there are laws and BIG fines and stuff. Lower down in the Witsundays I tried an introductory sucba dive and did some snorkelling of a boat, among the reef. Was a bit murky so didn’t see too much on the dive, the next day around Black Reef snorkelling was great sun shining fish reef, me in a big Gimp suit. Ok so you have to wear a full wetsuit and head cover plus clovers to go in the water due to the Jelly fish. You look kinda funny I have pictures. When I arrivied I Cairns I went out on another boat to the outer reef and did some more snorkelling, well worth it I have swam with turtles!!! Still need to work on my free diving, not the best at holding my breath.
So having fun will see Amanda in a fewdays I’m of to Cape tribulation rainforest.
