While I have been on the boat there has been barely any wifi so I could not post any thing new on my blog. The boat was great fun. on the very first day we went to a nice quite bay called saw mill. Rowan and I went to the beach in the kayaks and went for an explore of the island. We saw a red back spider in the toilets. 
The next day we went to a mangrove swamp which had one salt water crocodile which we did not cathch a glipse of. There were some fishing nets and we pulled one up to see what he was trying to catch, in the bottom of the net was the biggest crab you have ever seen.

We saw loads of whales (mum started to call them sea rats) in one bay there was a mother and her calf, we went right up close, it spurted out of its spout and got me very wet!

When we went to white heaven the sand was so fine that when you step on it it squeeked. Rowan and I played in the water and then swam back to the boat. We also went for a walk along to another beach that was across the island. On the beach there was a rotting turtle carus that was on the beach and loads of coco nuts which was quite impressive if you think about it  because the island only had one coconut tree on it and it was on the other side of the island.

 WE split open all of the coconuts that we found but they were all off. I went snorkelling in a place called dolphins point it was amazing all of the coral and fish it was by far my favourite place.

 Jez brought down one of his fishing rods we did catch some fish  but they were to small to eat sadly. On our seconded to last day I flew one of Jezes kite boarding kites and did body dragging it was my most favourite thing yet. Sorry i was not able to up load any Pictures so the the next post will have lots of pictures
