Living in the moment

The most recent adventures of the stark sisters, and the queen herself- Mrs. Abbie Lennox, have taken us to Green Island.
Just about 30k off the coast of Cairns, Green Island is a coral cay. Basically it was created from coral and skeletons accumulating together over time.
Anyways this spectacular island is a tropical paradise, rainforest on land and reef in the water. Although the reef here was damaged in 2011 by Cyclo
ne Yasi, it's still home to an array of exotic marine life.

These nifty and totally fashionable ninja suits we
are wearing are for the infamous stingers - or
jelly fish. If you have ever flipped past the Discovery Channel, or National Geographic you have probably heard a tid bit about the stingers in northern Australia. Now is the season that they take over the water, and as far as I'm concerned they are a force not to be reckoned
with.

That and pretending to be Charlie's Angels for a day was more invigorating than flaunting my red bikini.


Okay so I've sat with this little white box box
open for about 15 hours now, and I can not even formulate words to describe how beautiful this place truly is. So here is a video, shot and compiled by a girl who really has no idea what she is doing.
Hopefully these few pictures and video can speak for me on this one.
