While in Australia, we were able to fly North to Cairns to see The Great Barrier Reef. We also connected with my brother Zach and his camper van gang as they were travelling the east coast before heading home. We did a day trip snorkeling at the outer reef about 60 km from shore. The morning ride was really rough and I (and many others) became quite seasick. Thankfully I felt much better once we stopped and were able to get into the water. We saw incredible coral with tropical fish everywhere, great trip. Photos of our time in Australia have been uploaded to our photo gallery (Australia 2014).
