I am at present relaxing out by the pool, listening to some mellow tunes and reflecting on an awesome trip. My time in Cairns is almost up! I feel like I have gained a lot from this camp and being here in the heat. Not just physically but mentally aswell, it has been a good booster to get back into the swing of things. I dont want to harp on about the weather but it really has been awesome, apparently we have been lucky as it usually rains a bit up here, being a tropical rainforest and all. But apart from one cloudy day it has been brilliant.
Last week we decided to take a trip out to the Great Barrier Reef for the day. We got to see a lot of different fish, a turtle and even giant sea slugs! It was an amazing experience (apart from getting sea sick on the way over) made all the more special when we found out that if it keeps deteriorating /dying at the rate it is currently, the whole reef system will be gone in 10-15years! Which is very sad to hear.

My first ever Dive! Definitely will not be my last.

T for Turtle!
So the last few days I have been resting up, letting the body recover and getting ready to race on Sunday! This will be my first trip to a race in Asia. Excited!
