Good bye Darwin

Dear all,

 

After a crackin’ few days we have approached the time to depart Darwin. It was great to meet Alan’s family, Tony, Coral, Bill and Mary. We had some great meals out and managed to have a BBQ in Australia with them. A big thank you to them for making the effort to come and visit us.

 

We also managed to catch up with Craig who acted as one of line handlers through the Panama Canal. As promised he put a shrimp on the Bar-bee for us. – well at least a box of Shrimps for our freezer.

 

Our BBQ at Mary and Bill’s apartment

 

Prawns from Craig

 

Once we clear customs tomorrow morning we hope to exit Darwin and head for the Cocos Keeling Islands, 2000 nmiles away. This leg of the voyage should take some 14 days; however very little wind is forecasted at the moment.
