Great Barrier Reef and onto Sydney

Friday April 12, 2013

We did get to the Great Barrier Reef but the weather did not cooperate. The waves were awful. Brian will remember what the one in Greece was like. This boat trip was real similar. The only thing was that it was shorter. Many folks got sick and other things on Green Island where we went were cancelled. The snorkeling, the glass bottom boats and trip to outer reef was called back due to the turbulent seas.

We did get to go through a special marine museum which was really quite nice. They had crocodile feeding as well. That was fascinating to see that they don't care what or who they chomp on, as long as they get something in those large jaws.




Awfully large crocodile.




Fish swimming within the coral seas plantlife.



This sort of shows the different coloring as to where the reef is.




Lots and lots of green crud that has washed up on the beach area. The wind was really, really strong.
