Reef Magic |

We made an early start today to get down to the boat terminal in plenty time to get our tickets and have some breakfast. It was a good job that we did as Grayline had cancelled our trip and couldn't get in touch with us. Luckily we were there early enough to be put on another trip that was going out almost straight away. If we were not over an hour early we would have not gone to the reef. The trip involved a boat that took us out to a floating platform just of one of the reefs. There were introductory courses on scuba diving which i nearly went on until i remembered my dogy ears so i pulled out. Instead I went snorkelling which was really good as you may see from the pictures. Lucy and I also went out on a semi-submersable boat with a glass bottom so we could see the wildlife from that. It was great when they were feeding the fish when I was in the water as the fish were all over the place racing around. There was a large fish called Wally that everyone got thier picture with under the water. We came back to shore about 5pm and I discovered that I had burnt my head in the sun.
