We are having a fab time on the reef. We had a big sail, actually no sail, we motored as we were punching into the very strong wind.the wind has been very strong, but I don't mind as then it is not too hot. No rain which is a bonus and the sun coming out. More than three hours to get to this beautiful spot called michelmas (sp) cay. We have a sand cay just a swim away. There are thousands of black birds, terns? Making the place their home. Natsumi is a very comfy boat. Sits in the water so well. I have the front berth all to myself, double bed size and I have a hatch right above my head which is open all night. So I am in a great spot. Just had brekkie And waiting for the bread to cook then we will jump into the water and check out the fish and coral. Sheryl and I just threw over some bread and heaps of fish came in for a feed. The big boat in the pics belongs to friends of Gil and Sheryl. We had dinner on board last night. It is a mackerel fishing boat, but they have just returned form the Solomon Islands where they were carting coconuts. They are living on board but not fishing at present. It was so interesting to learn about the fishing.
Will be back in Cairns marina late tomorrow.
Love to you all
