My iPhone thermometer says it is 22 degrees, but it is
lying!

| Brrr |
We are wearing puffer jackets, and I have found some ancient
uggboots, which are making my feet much happier.
We are moored at Henning Island, saving $132 per day marina
fees.

It is quite nice, bobbing about on the waves just off
Henning Island. But we are not in the
least tempted to get into the kayaks, or – shudder - into the water!
We had spent the day on this mooring on Friday, our
last day with the Thomases. They were
very adventurous and went onto the island to collect shells. It was quite chilly and uninviting even then
but today is worse.

Never mind; we have enforced leisure! Not a bad thing, really…

We were very sad to say goodbye to the Thomas family.
But happy with our week; they were wonderful boat
company!

I found Zoe’s journal.
She had devoted two whole carefully drawn and labelled pages to TANG! I had a coupe of sachets of tang left over
from our travels. I don’t think you can buy
it in Australia any more. It is probably
full of banned preservatives and colourings.
And it went down a treat with the four Thomas children! They are obviously deprived of colourings and
preservatives…
She also did A Day
on The Boat which featured…2XS about to crash on the reef…
