A Family's Journey Around Australia

 Tim Tams are chocolate covered biscuits with chocolate, and/or caramel centers. I chose this name because it's my name. Tim Tam's Snorkeling Tales: When we were in Cairns Australia the family went on a three-day dive charter on the Great Barrier Reef. The first time I jumped in the water I saw an Angel Fish floating nearby. On the first snorkel I saw a parrotfish, blue-green damsels, stag horn coral, and some brain coral. On my second snorkel I swam within and inch of a sea turtle and got a picture of it. My snorkeling buddy, Nick was from Dallas Texas, and just had his 50th birthday while we were on the boat. I led my buddy Nick to the shallow parts of the reef because there's more life. There were lots of fish under the boat and after meals when we rinsed our dishes loads of red bass swarmed around the scraps of food that washed off the plates. I played lots of chess and checkers between dives and at night.
