It is a Christmas song, No ????

We slip slowly north along the side of Australia, the whales have left us, the sea remains tepid, the air temperature is slowly returning to normal.

A city stop in Cairnes was fun, marina in the town centre, a decedent time of walking from boat to shops, bars and restaurants, a complete change from dinghy to remote beach and life on an anchor.

Next stop Lizard island the a week sail to Darwin, then some silly stuff, apparently we have to be sterilised before we can go into marina, this involves a diver and no weekend working plus a load of other boats arriving at the same time.
