Day 12 Sun Aug 3

Hi all,

We are aboard Reef Encounter that is sitting over the Great Barrier Reef. Prilly and I are
up early for a 6:30AM dive. This dive you travel in a small boat down the reef, then you follow
the reef back to the boat that we are staying on.

At first light the pictures aren't as bright.

A sea cucumber.

The coral is beautiful.

Little fish.

Prilly flying along.

A large clam.

The camera does not capture the real colors.

After our dive, Jesse talks Amanda into giving it a try.

Amanda getting suited up.

Looks a little heavy.

The water is cold.

Jesse heads down to the bottom.

There goes Amanda.

Looks like she's got the hang of it.

They both survive.

He knew she could do it.

We transfer back to our shuttle boat and head for home.
Before dinner we snap a couple of pictures.

They look like they are having a good time.

We head out to an aboriginal dinner.

We first learn how to make fire.

The food is great, along with the entertainment.

Tomorrow we rent a car and drive south for 8 hours to Whitsundays.

See you all then.......

Love Prilly, Ralph, Sue, Amanda, and Jesse
