Great Barrier Reef, or should i call you Barrier Reef. Yeah it wasn't so great. Rained the whole day. Everyone got sea sick and was throwing up over the side of the boat. The snorkeling was shit. We had to stay in a group. I prefer to go off by myself and explore. In a group you hardly see anything as your too busy trying to avoid other people as they seem to always be in your way. One girl didn't know how to swim, which isn't even necessary when snorkeling. Your body float on the surface even if you don't move, like playing dead. Plus we were wearing life vests to keep us buoyant so why she also needed a Life ring and then had to be dragged about behind the instructor is beyond me. She was just floating about like a giant orange turd. I'll be it far more annoying. She wasn't disabled or anything. I think she was just lazy.
Visibility was shit in the water. Saw a turtle which i have seen before so no big whoop. Also held a sea cucumber which did actually look like a giant sea turd. Felt like holding a really big slug. FUN! Then the diving started and once again i couldn't do it. I don't like diving. Its just not me. Its not natural. Its the water pressure and the fact I'm trusting my life to a guy with a ponytail. You know what they say about a guy with a ponytail? lift up a ponytail, find an arseholes. I live by these words. Anyway didn't dive. We then went to an island, which at the time i was almost certain was located in Australia. I mean we hadn't travelled that far on boat. The whole island was swarming with Asian people. It was like a resort exclusively for Asians. Seriously you should have seen the place. I think i know where all the missing asian people, whos bodies where never recovered after the tsunami a few years back, are located. They just got swept up there and decided to stay. Anyway, in total a very bad day. Very upsetting. But my Whitsunday tour was amazing. So take the good with the bad...
