Lazy Life




Well I am well and truly adapting to this lazy lifestyle. Can bearly bring myself to even blog.


After bumping into friends from "Chieftann" and "Lady Diane" on the bus to Prossy, we decided to follow them up the coast to Cape Gloucester. The first night we spent at the secluded Jonah Bay. Another magical place and swam in the refreshing mainland beach. Others have liked it so much they have left fully equiped campsites to return to. They are so trusting, or sure of it's isolation that they have even left fishing rods ready to go next time.




From here we traveled up past "Montes" to the "Gloucester Echo Resort" and grabbed a mooring for $25 a night. This gave us full use of resort facilities and I enjoyed the use of the kayak the most. Weather hovered in the high 20's with a northerly.




Night life was great fun as well, with beautiful food, wine and company. Capt M was so relaxed, he forgot to bring a torch for the dinghy ride back at night! I couldn't stop laughing as we stumbled along the beach in the pitch black (moon hadn't risen yet), remembering reading about the presence of death adders up this way.




After 2 nights there we are now back at Stonehaven ready to look at the coral reefs again. Hot enough to jump right in at high tide.
