We have been at Magnetic Island for a few days now. The first two nights we spent at the marina, where we were joined by Denis again. He is feeling a lot better now. We went into Townsville on the ferry and did some provisioning. We also visited a museum where we learned a lot about a ship called Pandora, which was sent to Australia to look for the Bounty all those years ago. Interesting.
Today we moved to Horseshoe Bay. We met up with a number of Dutch boats. We had a bbq onshore with a whole variety of people and nationalities.
Tomorrow we move further north again on our way to Cairns.
