Day 54 - Journey to GBR and first dives
... they served lunch. It was a very nice veggie pasta and a bolognaise with salads, cold meat and bread. We enjoyed it very much. We then had an hour or so to relax before our first dive. Our cabin is great. It has a double bed, a small cupboard, a little sitting bench and a bathroom with a shower, loo and basin. We also have a window looking out over the sea. The water is a lovely colour and the reefs are quite visible from the surface. As with all first dives we ...
Mum and Dad visit Oz - a trip to North Queensland!

We were lucky that it was our only bad weather day and we still enjoyed a drive out amongst spectacular scenery!

Dave did well breathing through the scuba gear straight off but wasn't able to go too far down because his ears wouldn't equalize. In the end he had to return to the boat while I went around the reef, where I saw some big ugly fish. It was good to try diving, but I think we'll stick to snorkeling.
We also snorkeled up to ...
Relaxing Australia
... Hij wist ontzettend veel van het gebied en van zijn afkomst. Dus hij zat vol verhalen! Voornamelijk over hoe mensen in deze omgeving aan hun einde zijn gekomen. Dat kan in Australië namelijk op heel veel verschillende manieren: kwallen die hier in de zee zitten, de haaien die je opeten als je op een zeehondje lijkt, loslopende krokodillen op het strand of in de zee, of aangeschoten mensen die denken even lekker af te koelen in de ...
