Day 25 - Coral Bay - Tuesday 23rd July 2013

Sleep in this morning for those in our van after a late night chick flick!  Well, would have slept in if the people in the caravan behind weren't having a screaming match at 7am!!  Yummy pancake breaky and then off to catch the boat for our two hour glass bottom boat and snorkel cruise.

The kids were all so excited - you could see so clearly.  The coral was amazing - we got to see the Ayers Rock of the underwater world. There was a huge school of spangled emperor who swam along beside us for ages! Just teasing us really!








We hopped off and had a bit of a snorkel.  It is amazing how close the fish come to you - I could have touched them easily.  Well, I did a couple of times because they swam INTO ME!  One of them almost  kissed me!  
Snorkelled around for a little bit before back on the boat and then back to the park for lunch.



Lazy afternoon!  We had discussed all sorts of plans but the kids (ok and us) were exhausted so we stayed at the park and had a swim in the pool and a snooze!

Late afternoon walk down the beach to watch the sunset!  Took some amazing photos  of the sunset and then got to watch someone cleaning their 'humungous' fish!!  Just not fair really!
