So the beautiful Heron Island has come to an end and more of australia needs to be explored before moving onto New Zealand for a month!!! My last week spent with my brother snorkelling the beautiful waters with turtles all sizes ...mantarays...sting rays...fish of every shape, size and colour and to top it all off a fantastic helicopter ride off the island....

...After a crazy christmas and new year and weather of all extremes....i'll let the pictures do the talking!!!!!!!!1
