Who Taught You to Swim

I have never been to Australia or the Great Barrier Reef but it must be awesome. I did have the very good fortune to go to Fiji once and did some snorkeling on its gorgeous reefs, the prettiest reefs I have seen. Yet some Aussie boys on the boat back to Nadi were quite unimpressed, they said the Fiji reefs didn't hold a candle to the Great Barrier Reef. That will be something to look forward to in some future trip, I guess.

So many coral pics to choose from but this is a very colorful one there

Off topic but I hear that many break them off to bring back home as table peaces and theres less and less corals, to bad.

typical human morons destroying what beauty nature provides - and never to be replaced.
We even have wardens in African wild life reserves going out to purposely remove horns from rhinos so that there might be less slaughter of these poor animals
by poachers trying to satisfy the very lucrative oriental demand for their supposedly medicinal value.

hOPE THEY WONT START TO DESTROY SPEEDOS, WHAT WOULD THE WORLD BE WITHOUT THEM.

LOL - no actual destruction that I am aware of but an endangered species I suggest - where we are heavily reliant on the divers and the wp guys now for their survival (having lost the swimmers to their high-tech. alternatives).
