Shark Dive XTREME

So Julian’s birthday was fun! We’ll call it a successful 21st. :-p


This morning I took the ferry to Oceanworld Manly to redeem my Shark Dive Xtreme! It was me and 2 upper middle aged men who were scuba certified with our 2 instructors. After signing papers, watching a video, changing into our scuba gear and all that, we spent about half an hour in the large glass aquarium with fun animals like grey nurse sharks, gigantic rays, gigantic turtles, lots of fishies, and other types of sharkies. It was really cold but also awesome… Unfortunately, you’re not allowed to pet the sharks but I did get to pet a giant sea turtle and a huge ray that is apparently the size of a queen size bed. Basically, giant rays are the softest things in the world. Seriously. SO SOFT. I would like to sleep on one.

I don't have any pictures but here's one from the aquarium...

Now imagine me swimmin' in there with'em!! :o)

Julian and I are going on a beach walk later!
