We woke up early today to make our scuba diving trip. We checked out of our amazing hotel, and thanked the concierge for his services. The ferry was easily in walking distance, so getting there wasn't a problem. Daniel Li and Cole didn't want to dive so they waited and walked around Hamilton Island while we enjoyed the Australian water.
The Great Barrier Reef(Ecosystem) is an amazingly beautiful location. Even though some people saw the reef is dying, it is still technically the largest living thing on earth. The reef itself seemed to glow with the amount of coral and sea life there was. The most popular fish we saw was called the Wrasse. The Wrasse is a yellow fish with a large hump on its forehead which it derives its name. We also saw clown-fish, sea turtles, and even a huge swordfish! After we landed back we thanked our guide for taking us and hurried for our flight.
We barely changed and made our flight in time we couldn't find Cole and Daniel at the dock. They were out talking to some Australian girls on the beach. Our first flight was from Airlie beach to Sydney, as there were no viable direct flight options from our location. we then went on a walk around Sydney and viewed some of the amazing sights, Chris then convinced us to take a walk around Hyde park and we played some frisbee for the next few hours before we walked to our room in the airport hotel Sydney and stayed they night for $55.
