On the way from Cairns to Darwin we stopped overnight at Lizard Island.  This is a lovely island and we walked up Cooks Lookout where Cook went to, to see the gaps in the Barrier Reef.  We stopped at an island at the top right corner of Australia where we saw a crocodile on the beach.  When we arrived in Darwin we first had to go at anchor to be de mussled..  this involved a diver coming and squirting stuff up each sea inlet of the boat and then we had to stay there for 14 hours before going to Tipperary waters marina..  We saw a beautiful sunset at this anchorage, enjoyed a nice meal on board and a few bears and had a good night sleep

We left the dinghy on the beach             view over anchorage on the way up

It is about 4 meters long and waiting!!!

We have seen some wonderful sunsets…..
