Coral Bay<br />
In 2007, Linley and I<br />
travelled with Jane and<br />
friend Richie to Coral Bay.<br />
Here we went fishing,<br />
catching some big ones.<br />
Then we went to Exmouth<br />
and swam with the whale<br />
sharks (the largest fish in<br />
the ocean). This is an<br />
awesome experience. The<br />
spo er plane finds the<br />
whale sharks and the boat<br />
we were on drops you in<br />
Whale Shark<br />
front of the Whale Shark and you watch them swim towards you. One of the very<br />
large ones was only meters away as you watched in awe.<br />
You see small fish swim in and out of its mouth as they swim along. A er the Whale<br />
Shark has gone, while wai ng for the boat to pick us up, sea snakes would swim<br />
past.<br />
On the way back to our landing bay, we came across a pod of Orca’s (killer whales)<br />
diving on a baby Humpback whale to drown it with mother whale thrashing around<br />
trying to protect her calf. They ended up killing the calf and they only eat the<br />
bo om jaw and the<br />
tongue. A er they<br />
finished feeding, they<br />
came over to our<br />
boat. The boat<br />
operator said in all<br />
the years he had<br />
been up there, he<br />
had never seen this<br />
before. Then when<br />
we were on the bus<br />
going back to<br />
Exmouth, we came<br />
across an Echidna<br />
burying itself on the<br />
side of the road.<br />
