I cannot think of enough adjectives to explain how wonderful the Great Barrier Reef is. We took a trip (2 hours) out to the reef to get a taste of what will be waiting for me next week when I complete my dive certificate (cross your fingers). This has been the best snorkeling I have ever done. I can't list everything I saw. Highlights: giant clams, large parrotfish, many different varieties and colours of coral and the coral was alive! I'm sure some of you are wondering why a "Northerner" is wearing a wetsuit. The water was 28 C but they advised us to wear wetsuits in case of jellyfish.
On the way back, Aussie fun. They drag a huge net behind the boat, gun the engine for a few minutes to see how many people or bikinis fall off. Was great fun. They had a small boat to pick up stragglers.

You should take some underwater pictures so I can see it, as we all know I will never see this for myself, what with my intense fear of anything aquatic, espeacially porous things like coral and the like, or alive things like fish, I cant BELIEVE you are my mother!
