The good news is that we are over halfway and still heading towards Queensland... The not so good news is that due to SW winds we appear to be pointing straight at Mackay. Fortunately the wind is due to swing more to the east later this evening so we should get back on track tonight.

Should have a pretty good idea of ETA by this time tomorrow.

Otherwise, the weather is still nice (and forecast to remain so) although now we are out of the tropics it is getting a bit cold for our liking - only 25 - 26C during the day!!! We haven't had cold like this since the Med!!!
