Great Barrier Reef

Bright and early we're off to the Great Barrier Reef! A bus is here to pick us up and drive us the 4 minutes to the dock. Before we left we went across the street to grab some quick breakfast from the café. I got a cookie 😳 oooops.

We're riding on a boat called calypso. It was just suppose to be ASU students but many other people are on our boat which I guess is okay because Ben is very cute. Maybe ill fall overboard. The top deck is the worst with motion. You'll go flying everywhere. It was so awesome and my favorite part of the boat. It was so intense I couldn't even stand up without falling over. I discovered that I love boats. They're are so very awesome. I wish I had one, a fast one. Vroooom vroooom.

I'm so bad at snorkeling. I drank more salt water than I did anything else. It was the saltiest water I've ever tasted. The whole breathing out of my mouth all the time was difficult too. I lost my friend in the water and ended up all alone in the open water. I was for sure a shark was going to kill me. But it's okay I'm alive. The reef wasn't as pretty as I expected. It was dull in color not bright like the pictures. Boo. There were some cool fish though. Very brightly colored and cute. Apparently after Nemo came out the demand for clown fish went up and there aren't any left in the reef. How unfortunate.

My sunglasses broke. I had to buy new ones. I got ones with a floral pattern on them. It was only $9. Thank you chemist.

We ate at pizza place and it was yummy pizza. The ground was sand which I thought was pretty cool. It was super beachy
