Mr and Mrs Blobby on the Reef !

What a day we've had on the Great Barrier Reef.
We had to wear these suits as it is "stinger season" .These are jelly fish which can put you in hospital with a sting apparently - so we didn't take any chances.
We sailed in an enormous catamaran for 1.5 hrs to get to the docking stn over the reef ( there were 300 of us !)
We snorkeled for about an hour and saw beautiful corals and a variety of fascinating fish. We are sorry to say it wasn't as impressive as when we scuba-dived in the Florida Keys - do you remember that Nick and Andrew ?
We also went in a glass viewing boat before our journey home. Certainly a day to remember.
Today is Australia Day - so we are joining in the celebrations tonight - not sure what to expect !
