We have a fairly relaxed day today. We go for a wander through town and Sue shows me where she went yesterday. We decide on a trip to the Great Barrier Reef for tomorrow and book it.
We spend some more time in the garden at the hostel posting to the blog and Sue has a swim in the pool. In the evening we visit ‘Reef Teach’ for a two hour talk on the marine life, coral, history, dangers and delights of the reef. If we’re going to be swimming around out there tomorrow I’d like to have some idea of what we are looking at – especially if there's a chance it could kill me.
Afterwards we have pizza at a restaurant on the esplanade and head back ready for an early start in the morning.
