Day 4

0

Today was very interesting. We started off the day by heading to the marina and eating breakfast there. After eating we got on our boats and went to the reck of the Rhone, which was a ship that crashed in 1867. I could not equalize, probably do to my congestion, so I was not able to dive. But I was able to snorkel, and it was amazing. I was able to see the stern of the wreck; I saw the massive bronze propeller, as well as the ribs and windows of the great ship. It was all covered in sea life, but the ship could still be clearly seen. After seeing the wreck we all climbed aboard the boat and started off for Cooper Island for lunch. We where all served fish and chips, and then given a tour of the resort and restaurant. The general manager told us all about what they where doing to environmentally friendly, while saving money. We saw the 90 solar panels, Eco cups, and chairs made out of old boats. It was really interesting. Then we finished our days on the boat by doing some snorkeling, where we was a stingray, squid, barracuda, and a sea turtle. It was spectacular. Then we headed back to the cabins and ended the day with dinner. It was the best day so far.
