Useful Information about the Great Barrier Reef
Another key threat faced by the Great Barrier Reef is pollution and declining water quality.
The Great Barrier Reef has long been known to and utilised by the Aboriginal Australian and Torres Strait Islander peoples. Aboriginal Australians have been living in the area from at least 40,000 years ago, and Torres Strait Islanders since about 10,000 years ago
Fast Fact #9: The Great Barrier Reef can be seen from outer space and is the world's biggest single structure made by living organisms.
On The Plane
This is the most exciting part of my trip.
I will be going on the Quiksilver Trip which will take me Past where Steve Irwin passed away and then will take me straight to the Barrier Reef.
I have been here once when I was a little girl but I have forgotten.

Useful Information about the Andes Mountains
The Andes Mountains are the longest and one of the highest mountain ranges in the world. They are located in South America and stretch 4,500 miles from north to south, along the west coast of the continent.
The Andes are separated into three natural regions: the southern, central, and northern regions. In the northern region, it is hotter because it is closest to the equator. There are rain forests in this region, due to the more humid, rainy climate. In the southern region, the mountains are nearer to the Antarctic and it is much colder. It is not very populated in the southern area.
Many of the plants which grow in the Andes Mountains are small in size to save energy. Their leaves can be stiff and strong to protect them from frost and cold weather if they are high in the mountains.
The Andes Mountains provide many birds with homes like the Flamingo, Andean Flicker, the Condor, and the Hillstar Hummingbird. Types of land animals include the Mountain Lion, the Red Perll, and Llamas to name a few. The Spectacled Bear also lives here. The Giant Toad and Andean Iguana are some examples of reptiles. This iguana is one of the few lizards found in that cold weather.
On the Plane

Useful information about Glacier Bay
Today I will be Searching for humback whales, Watching the killer whales feeding near the park's near-shore waters. I will be watching the Steller sea lions resting on rocky islands, and harbor seals nurturing their pups.
Glacier bay is Perfect for unforgettable wildlife.
The highest awareness of tidewater glaciers on the planet can be found at Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve. Access to the tours are extremely limited and not all cruise lines can offer this amazing adventure.
Glacier Bay spreads across an amazing 3.2 million acres in southeast Alaska.
John Muir discovered Glacier Bay in 1879, then surveyed the pure scenery and stated it "still in the morning of creation."
In the northeastern corner of Glacier Bay, the Takhinsha Mountains supply the active Muir Glacier, which regularly sheds walls of ice into the bay. The brilliant blue glow of an amazing glacier and the deafening roar of ice crashing into the water below are sights and sounds that you'll remember for the rest of your life.
