Today we went to great keppel island, we had a great time!

first of all, we woke up at four am by the kookaburras because someone
must've got pushed in the pool by his two year old daughter and all
the kookaburras would be laughing at them!
anyways, after we got up at about nine am we quickly left to go to
Great Keppel island which was a massive island but almost completely
deserted, anyways, we got there at about ten and then we had to wait
heaps long because dad had forgotten to bring the money so dad and mum
went back to the caravan park while we waited about half an hour until
they came back! and we just made it to the ferry before it left! and
we got togo in the captains cabin and Abraham got to have a photo
taken with him in the captains seat! also Adrian (who was someone that
worked there) put Abraham in a life jacket and then tied the life
jacket to a pole and so abraham was stuck! after we got to the island
we went to the gift shop and I got a mini-sand-foot with great keppel
island on one side, and on the other side it said great barrier reef
(because technically we were at the very bottom of the great barrier
reef).
We also went goggling and I saw this really cool fish that that had
orange stripes, a blue tail and a black body but Abraham didn't find
anything.
We also went on a coral tour where we were in a glass bottom boat and
we could see all these fish! he also had some coral to show us such as
the STAG CORAL which just happened to be a coral that represented a
stag's antlers it also happened to be a hard coral but it, if you
dropped it it would smash like glass rather then surviving the blow
like iron,
he also showed us another coral called BRAIN CORAL which, of course
was a coral that looked like a brain and it also was a hard coral but
it was more like iron than glass!
he also showed us some shells such as the spider shell which had eight
sharp bits ( why does everything have to have a name that represents
what they look like?) and he got us to sing the spider pig song but
instead of pig we had to sing shell! he also showed us one that he
didn't know the name of (which is quite strange). and then we saw this
whole bunch of fish that looked like sharks and he had a bucket of
crayfish and he threw them at the fish and they all went after it and
it looked really cool. there was also another fish that he fed that,
instead of biting his food used his jaw and sucked it inside because
he didn't have any teeth, and apparently one of the workers has lost
heaps of gloves because the fish has sucked it feally quickly in. so
all in all we had a great day!!!
