The Great Barrier Reef

The next stop on my Australian adventure was Cairns in the state of Queensland.  It was so interesting to go from the desert to the tropics in just one day!  While in Cairns, we had a full day excursion to the Great Barrier Reef in the Coral Sea and it was seriously cool.  We took a catamaran out to the reef and then we were based on a large pontoon boat.  You could scuba dive, go snorkeling, take a ride in a glass-bottomed boat, or see the reef in a submersible.  It was amazing!
It was one of the most spectacular places I’ve ever been.  My favorite moment was when a school of barracuda swam by!
