Snorkeling the Great Barrier Reef

OK…..use your imagination….we get to the part of the great barrier reef that we intend to snorkel. The jellyfish aka stingers are prevalent in the water this time of year. In order to protect us, the crew of the catamaran give us ‘stinger suits’. These suits zip in the front, have a hood for our head and built-in gloves for our hands. They are damp from the weather and previous use therefore they are harder than hell to even get on. I’m not sure these suits would look good on any supermodel, let alone Charlie and I!!! I’ve cropped the picture to save everyone from therapy but imagine if a teletubby and Danny DeVito as the Penguin had a baby!
