And we are not getting north fast enough to avoid it. It was hot summer in Sydney in March but now quite cold nights and early mornings in Queensland. We have even had to get out the duvet (for the bed). But some lovely sunny days, beautiful sunsets and it is still possible to swim in the sea – so long as you keep moving that is (or wear a wetsuit). Called in Mooloobala, Fraser Is, Bundaberg.

Now underway at night hoping to stop at Lady Musgrave Island, the southern start of the barrier reef.

*have started eating porridge for breakfast.
