still at lizard
25 May 2012 | lizard island
20-30 knots scattered showers
So we decided to stay anchored at lizard to wait for more favorable winds. we could've left yesterday and made it to the Flinders group before the stronger winds arrived but the beach there is quite small, you can't swim because of crocodiles and there is nowhere to walk to. pretty much the opposite of lizard. We had a nice easy day today. the littles and I dropped the girls off at the reef by dinghy so they could snorkel and we went to the beach. Once we were all set up with beach toys and food and rug all out Ameliana sat down to play, dug one shovel full of sand and said "go home?" so i packed it all up distracted her by letting her drive the dinghy over to mummy and kelly where she went for a swim wih her lifejacket on and off. then we went to beach for the rest of the morning. not done much for the rest of the day, i installed the new fuse for the fridge, made a few more routes on the gps, read a bit, lifted the dinghy out of the water after ame said she didn't want to go to the beach this afternoon and thats about it. kelly read all afternoon and nicole fed elora and after ame woke up, played with them on the floor. We plan on doing another walk tomorrow to the lagoon on the other side of lizard.
