The errands were easy, pick up some bits to complete some prior missions with dinghy fuel filtering, hooks for sail bags and drill bits to replace others broken. Now Jo and Naomi were on board and the beautiful day unfolded as we took easy sailing down wind to the Gloucester Passage. Dividing mainland and Gloucester Island, we pulled the left hander to sail most all the way to the Eco resort. Sailor friend from last year, Doug, was soon over for a discussion about most things and a couple of drinks. The sun set, and the fisher-people amongst us showed themselves. Another grand day in the beautiful Whitsundays.

I want the culture of all lands to be blown about my house as freely as possible. Pretty much my life... and I love it. John's world trip Where did I go on my recent round the world trip.
