Snorkelling the Great Barrier reef
Day 55, Yorkey’s Knob, Australia:
After donning my equipment, it was into the water. Now usually this is a simple job. Today the swell was so strong that sitting on the seating half submerged at the edge of the pontoon to put on flippers was no easy task. As the swell rolled in I rolled off with flippers still in hand. I had a choice. Hold on to the hand rails on the seating or put my flippers on. After ten minutes I managed to hold my breath to get the flippers on. I was ready for the water.
