April 26, 2011 - Snorkeling at the Reef


We took a day trip to the Great Barrier Reef for some scuba diving & snorkeling. It was a lot of fun, we saw tons of fish and beautiful coral as expected, but the water was r-o-u-g-h so the boat ride itself was kind of an adventure on its own. We learned that some cultures seem to be more susceptible to sea sickness than others and that it is not a good idea to eat a plate of salads on the top deck of a boat travelling very fast in choppy water unless you want to cover me & Tom in cucumbers and coleslaw.

PS - Tom took this photo of me while we were snorkeling (I think I was trying to clear my snorkel or something)... we wore the cute blue stinger suits since it was still technically stinger season and neither of us wanted to get stung!
