Saturday
Bright and sunny – and – we are off!

We had our last cheery dinner with the Clonarf Harmsens.

Customs officers have been; and very nice they were too. (Thorough but not overbearing.)

We are at the Clontarf fuel wharf at this moment, filling up with many gallons.

Our dear friend Robert has picked up his car…

The unstartable BMW is still firmly stuck in place, immovable…

And we have left our recent home, Middle Harbour Yacht Club.

Not sure when next we will be in internet reach – maybe not until Lord Howe Island?

  1. How exciting! Jenny and Family lived on Lord Howe for a year about 3 years ago, locals might remember them. Safe sailing, thinking of you.

  2. Sorry who are Clonarf Harmsens? Customs officers? does that mean you have left Aussie shores? Assuming Robert is the Aureilli Kind. But pleased to hear that you seem to have crossed the straight without incident! Must appologise for lack of time to read the entries. Happy that all is going well. Love to you and Dad. Becxxxxxx

  3. Enjoy the crossing to Lord Howe with your mesh bags swinging to and fro! I have several string bags in the trunk of the car bought from TASSAL at Salamanca, so many bright colours and thought how could I send some of these to Sydney but hey presto you managed to find alternate bags. Enjoy M and P xx
