This morning I had the best surprise. Mum and dad had told Kade and I to stand holding a piece of paper with some writing on it (we didn't know what it said) and smile for the camera. After they took a few photos, they told us we could read what it said, this is what we read, We are about to find out we are going to swim with WHALE SHARKS. I couldn't believe it, we were going to go out on a boat and swim with the largest shark in the world! They then told us we were going tomorrow, so we only had one night to wait. After we calmed our excitement, we packed our snorkel gear in the car and headed off to snorkel at Oyster Stacks. The reason we left so early in the morning was because you could only snorkel at high tide and high tide was early this morning, otherwise the stacks would not be submerged and poke out of the water. We climbed our way down into the water and our eyes adjusted to the sight of the bright fish swimming around us. I saw 3 small starfish and 1 bright blue one that had really thick arms. After we got out, we dried off and then went back to the caravan. We played a few games of UNO and then had some lunch. In the afternoon we went and up and talked with some other campers and watched some brilliant whales all heading North. I just can’t wait for tomorrow!
