Kepple Bay Marina







Arrived at the marina in the rain and tied up sucessfully on our own...



Sunshine out next 2 days. Hired a car (nice silver blue Getz) to look around Yepoon and Rockhampton. Some beautiful historic buildings in Rocky and lots of pubs.



Met One of Capt M.'s old workmates and wife staying at the same marina. Made for good fun.



Told us about boatie website http://www.skipr.net/ I will check out.
Top photo is the famous Singing Ship monument to Capt Cook at Emu Park. It actually makes noise from the wind.
The one with me in the foreground is one of the volcanic plugs around here. Check out the lines in the rock.

    Hey Cathhy
    all looking spectacular! Nice change from hospital walls and sliding blue curtains....all went well, apparently. My uterus, full of fibroids, had adhered to bladder so it was a damn good thing to have it removed. Ovaries looking good and still in...just have to rest up now and heal hopefully out today..hey are you going to heron island? I went there about 15 years ago. It was gorgeous. Keep up th good sailing. It's great reading of your adventures! Marie xxx
