Cairns, Great Barrier Reefs

Words, and even pictures cannot justly depict its magic.   Swimming in 80 degree waters at the Great Barrier Reef, we were surrounded by beautiful sea turtles,  yellow and grey rays, giant sea clams ( bigger than us ), and schools of neon colored fish, gracefully going about their day.
