GBR: Norman Reef.

Second half of the day, Tim spent green and sick, but also on Norman Reef, two hours into the ocean, right on top of the reef from our pontoon.

GBR: Green Island.

The first half of our Great Barrier Reef Excursion was spent on Green Island. An hour into the ocean lies a small small island of complete beauty...

Reef and Tide Videos!

Last Set of Videos!!!

Two hours into the Pacific Ocean, you land on a giant floating pontoon. From that pontoon you can dive in a sub and take a little ride along the reef....


Outside our hotel in Cairns. The water traveled at least the lengths of two football fields in an hour when tide was coming in. Nuts.

Tim's Helicopter Adventure!

Poor kid was so sick that there was no way in hell I was letting him take the ferry back for two hours from the Great Barrier Reff. So I was a good wifey and shelled out the moolah for him to get his own helicopter ride back....at least he got footage of the view!!!

Ode to Cairns/GBR

Good Bye Cairns....I shall miss you. More than you know.

Towns run by hippies with the best fruit salad on earth.

Oceans that disappear during the tide.

Street performers with odd style.

Night Markets with endless tourist traps.

Italian eateries with calzones the size of my torso.

Not including the Great Barrier Reef...
