Scuba diving in the Great Barrier Reef ~ June 19, 2012

It was cold and windy, but we were pumped and ready to go diving. My first experience was amazing to say the least!
Shara and I ready to go!

Holding onto the rope that anchored our boat.  To prevent damaging the reef with anchors, there are preplaced blocks on the ocean floor for boats to tie up to.
I love you, Australia :)

The clams were huge!

So colorful



Ahh, so amazing!

We found Nemo!

Just swimming under water for 30 minutes...weirdest feeling ever! Its the closest feeling to zero gravity you will get without being in space.




Kneeling on the ocean floor...no big deal :)

The group after a day of snokeling and scuba diving. I can't wait to go again someday!


Its just as colorful and pretty as it looks on the Discovery Channel. The grayish areas in the water is the reef!
