The Great Barrier Reef (Part 2) (December 24, 2010)

The snorkeling was awesome! It was about a 1.5 hour ride to the reef. The ship stopped and everyone was ready to go. The ride over taught us about the different types of coral and fish we might see. There were more fish than any other snorkeling trip I have ever taken. You could reach out and almost touch one any time.

The fish's name is Wally. Wally has grown q
uite fond of the tour groups and comes to play when the boat stops. It is stinger (jellyfish) season this time of year. Everyone was recommended to wear the full body suit. The weather and water were nice and warm.
