Great Barrier Reef, Whitehaven Beach & Helicopter Tour

Yesterday and today I visited Whitehaven Beach and the Great Barrier Reef.  I can honestly say in have never seen something so amazing.  Whitehaven Beach will never leave my memory.   I took a boat/snorkel/hiking tour of Whitehaven Beach yesterday and cruised out to the Great Barrier Reef today and flew back to my hotel via helicopter.  On this trip, I was able to see the GBR, Whitehaven, and the Whitsunday Islands from the sky.  Definitely and amazing d possible once jn a lifetime experience.

I chose to scuba dive for the first time today too!  I'm in Australia, where better to do it for the first time??  I was sooo incredibly nervous but my guide held my hand until I got comfortable.  

I did soooo many new things today it's ridiculous!!! So cheers to doing new things.  Check out my pics below.  It's hard to capture the natural beauty here, but I did my best! Enjoy!
