Just another day in paradise…


Monday:
11:30am Biology midterm

1:15pm Psychology midterm

Tuesday:
1:00am board a bus bound for the ferry

8:30am arrive at breakfast spot, a McDonalds near the ferry, after a very long drive

11:00am ferry to Heron Island

1:00pm arrive on Heron Island and be amazed

Spend less than 30 minutes walking around the perimeter of the entire island



4:00pm snorkel safety lesson

Shortly thereafter, find out that we are evacuating the island due to the impending Cyclone Ului

Try to watch the sunset, get caught in random rain, run away from beach

Go hang out on the jetty looking for sea turtles, find a few

Stay up late watching a movie, get a few hours of sleep

Wednesday:
7am breakfast

Snorkel until 9:30

Walk around island again, see at least 100 rays and 2 sharks not 5 feet away

Pack, leave room by 11:00am

11:15 lunch

Hang out on the jetty watching sea turtles, Gus the giant groper, and rays. Try to catch the rays jumping up out of the water.

1:00pm leave our island paradise after only 24 hours

2 more hours on a ferry, 7 more hours on a bus, dinner at a truck stop, arrive back in Brisbane around 11pm on St. Patrick’s Day and crash asap.
