Good News-Bad News

Hello to all our yachtie friends, it is so long again since I have posted a blog, but the moment has at last arrived that I can talk to you all.

Home!!

The last lap, so we left Garry’s Anchorage at 5.50am to catch the incoming tide to cross the bar. No wind at all. We started down the “mad mile” towards the bar crossing – not for the faint hearted today, it was like a washing machine, however the largest wave we saw was about 3 metres. Finally [...]

Yankee Jack Creek

Off yet again at 5.45 am, I was almost sleepwalking as the skipper did his usual, go, go, now.........

Nearly Home

We had a lovely quiet day in the creek, we even played cards and Scrabble, beaten again!!!

Dawn Start

Up at 4.30am [we must be mad]! To get to Pancake Creek before tomorrow, when a S Easter is forecast, means a very long haul today. We will pass Cape Capricorn at about 10am before sailing down the outside of Curtis Island and Gladstone etc.

Another Ripper!!

Another day, this time up at 5am and underway at 5.40am. The water is like oil, not a breath of wind. The clouds are quite heavy at present, but it is very early yet.

Yachts everywhere!

We had an easy two and a half days sail back to Ao Chalong. This time we came via Koh Ngai, a calm spot overnight. It is amazing to see yachts everywhere, all this year's crop of Sail Indonesia. Sailing past Phi Phi, the boats and longtails and speed boats were wall to wall....high season is here!!!! We are so fortunate to be able to go to lovely spots away from the commercial crowds.
Last night we caught up with the Sea Bunnies, they are also here for Christmas etc. We had dinner on TP. On Monday 21st I have the FINAL op on my gums, with the last titanium screws to go in. What a relief! Only fitting of the new teeth onto the screws in April. We will also organise our visas for India, January is almost here, and serious cruising will start again, YES!
