Sunday 19th May

Another early start – left the anchorage at 6.30am. It was a beautiful day and luckily we arrived at our day’s destination at 2.30pm. This gave us some time to relax and sunbathe a little. All that sunshine helps the body make Vitamin D which is good for the bones – don’t you know!! Coming from a family beset with oesteoporosis, I am keen to boost anything that helps delay that situation.

Our anchorage for the night is Brampton Island which is supposed to be populated but we saw no-one at all. Had a lovely dinner and watched the sunset below.

Enjoy.
