Story

We took a taxi to Coral World Ocean Park and looked through their aquariums and other exhibits. At 11:15, Tara and Madi did their helmet diving underwater trek where you put on a helmet that has air flowing and you follow a hiking trail around the ocean floor. It takes about 15 minutes. There was a little bit of a mix-up on my end, which is why we split up so I could take videos but that meant that I didn't get to go until 1:00. So we walked down the beach and got a hot dog for Madi then went back so I could do the helmet walk. We watched a fun show about sea lions and then another one with dolphins then we caught a taxi back to the town center.
