August 8: Great Barrier Reef




 

















We couldn't visit the Whitsundays without a trip to the Barrier Reef so we took the 2 hour cruise out to 'Reefworld' on the edge of Hardy Reef.  The crossing was pretty rough and it was interesting watching the group of British school lads who had all been quite loud on the way out of Hamilton, hanging green-faced over the edge of the boat as the ocean became more and more choppy!  We weren't at Reefworld for very long but we had enough time for Nick to go Scuba diving, some snorkelling and a trip on the glass bottom sub.  Daisy especially enjoyed watching the divers cleaning the outside of the underwater viewing room. It's hard work all this holidaying lark!
