Heron Island
Sep. 11th, 2008 09:49 pmRight. We're back.
In case you missed it, A. and i spent the last week or so up on Heron Island.
We patted an epaulette shark. A. fell in love with christmas tree worms. I snorkelled with sharks, and learnt how to scuba dive. On my first ever dive, I saw a manta ray feeding. We flew in a helicopter, found turtles mating, and saw a humpback whale breeching.
I even have a travel story that fits my theory of travel stories*. It involves a tick, my privates, and an item from a computer toolkit.
We're back now, sunburnt, sleepy, and blissfully happy.
Photos soon. We'll be at Gulag tomorrow night, if you want to hear us blather about it all.
