Snorking today brrrrrrrrrrr lol

Ok it was my idea , me and Rob was bored and we stopped in Western Bay to anchor till tomorrow when we motor to Mackay marina . Rob bought 2 stinger suits , thoses are like lighter versions of a scuba suit and we donned on the flippers and masks and took the dingy to the reef to see what kind of fish was out there . It was FREEZING coooooold  You people in America have to know that Australia in August is still Winter , and even though the sun shines that water is cold . but we both screamed for a few moments while adjusting to the coldness . We seen small fish and a few flame angel fish , it was kinda murky , due to the northely winds whipping around the island . Rob then had to aggravate a sea turtle that was swimming by minding its own business , he wanted to catch it , jumped over board and it took off . We both also fished for whiting and only caught 2 , but i got to practice using my fishing net he got me . Western Bay is so beautiful  the sea is so blue and green and clear , soft smooth sand everywhere . Well Thats it for now , its almost tea time here in Australia
have a G day ! America
