Great Barrier Reef Snorkling

Well been in Australia for a little over two weeks now and had a blast! Ridiculously expensive, but mainly due to the cost of alcohol which is ultimately my own fault hahah

Stayed with good friends in Sydney (great city!) and felt like I got to see a lot of it and really get to know the city well.  Some fantastic partying and delicious food!

I then moved on to Cairns, where I’ve done a jungle tour/bike/canoe in the tablelands just west of Cairns with the On The Wallaby tour company.  Great fun, people and cool creatures (saw a platypus!).  Then jumped out of a plane at 14,000 feet with a big burley man strapped to my back hahah was pretty incredible and dropping through the clouds at terminal velocity then popping the chute on the other side was definitely an experience I won’t forget anytime soon =D

I also did a bit of snorkling here at the Great Barrier Reef too on a little 20 person catermeran tour company that was a blast.  Went with my friend from home and a new American guy we met at the hostel.  All great fun so thought I’d share some of those reef pictures.  Enjoy!

    Hi, trying to catch a shark, are you NUTS.
    Do you still have all your appendages or are you missing some?
    Certainly, a few brain cells must have gone missing if you
    feel that the shark can be coddled.
    Do not do that again.
    Love Mother
