Day 3

Today was another busy day at Rabaul. We started off the day with a yummy breakfast to boost us through the day. After breakfast one of the teams hopped on the bus to see the underground hospital and tunnels while the other team left to go to the Sub Base/snorkelling site.

When the three teams arrived at the underground hospital, we all stepped into the big black hole were some people got scared and waited at the exit. Also along the way, we ran into a huge scary spider! After that, we made our way up to the big tunnels with lots of space! so much space inside that there were 3 big boats that the Japanese had used in the war. Once we finished, we hopped onto the bus to meet the other teams. In our bus, Miss Peters requested a song “RadioActive” to ‘Now FM’ and they announced us on the radio.

Once we got to the substation, we did a beautiful walk with a lot of small tunnels and a lighthouse, it was soooo fun! Snorkelling was next in line. It was really pretty with colourful coral and tiny, little cute fish. To really surprise us in the distance we saw dolphins. They did all sorts of spins and jumps, though we were a bit late to capture them on camera.

After this long day we all skipped back into the bus for our long journey back to the resort. On the bright side we all got ice-cream! At the resort everyone chilled while the runners did their afternoon run in the sunset. At the end of the day, we were all told traditional stories from the storytellers and roasted marshmallows.  YUM!
