Supply Ship Excitement and
Jolly Good Paddling
![]() ![]() Bear jumped up early and ran around
about with his camera this morning. A ship is coming
in. Yes dear, I’ll just turn over and have another hour, I feel five
thirty a little early for this vexation. Guess
what.................. I can’t wait a second
longer.........
![]() ![]() ..............A full account of u-turn came forth.
![]() To say I was thrilled when the skipper
took his muesli to the cockpit for a front seat
breakfast is an understatement. I got my hour.
![]() I got up to find the Olomana of Avatu in fine form.
![]() At nine we went to pick up Sofia and
Blake (Windarra), timing our entry around the
unloading.
![]() Around a dangling
container, but plenty of strong men to help hoist Baby Beez.
![]() A good go at rock
pooling.
![]() Despite the
stunning pools.........
![]() ![]() Bear couldn’t
help watching the unloading.
![]() The men worked
hard and we carried on with our exploring.
![]() ![]() A couple of nice
pencils, time to cross the wharf and scruff about there on the other
side.
![]() This side was more of a warm paddle
in six inches of water.
![]() Amazing to walk to
the edge of the reef, but soon the tide turned and we moved
on.
![]() Up, along the road and down to a cute
little beach.
![]() Bear had plenty to watch.
![]() We swam in the warm, natural pools,
close to the girls.
![]() ![]() A nice fat worm and a soft star,
scruffy with a piece of seed stuck to
him.
![]() A good sized hermy (hermit), very hairy
legs for rock bimbling.
![]() Homeward bound, with not enough wind,
so the girls looked like they were having a tiff, facing in
all directions – a rolly night in the swell then.
ALL IN ALL GOOD
