and then there was none.

I am talking about communication devices.

No phone.

No internet.

No Tara on catch up tv.

is this some kind of joke?

But I made it. I made it through the 'black hole', and I have lived to tell the tale.


We have spent the last few days chugging peacefully up Cowan Creek through the KRG Chase NP, our anchorages have included America Bay, Hallets Beach (one of the few spots the kids have been able to go to shore) where they were rewarded with a massive Monitor lizard, Smiths Creek, and now Pinta Bay, off Jerusalem Bay. We took the dinghy to Cottage Point Kiosk yesterday for 'treats' and Coopers. I loved that kiosk, which belongs to a bloke from Anglesea. Cooks was given some burnt toast to feed the fish below the balcony. She ate most of it - (hope they didn't get it out of the bin).

We also putted past Cottage Point Inn - the restaurant whom I communicated with earlier on in the year about possible work. With nowhere to moor our yacht, it would be impossible to work there. Cottage Point, has no public moorings - all club or private -which is disappointing, as I liked the feel of it.

We did manage a staccato phone call from my sis Em yesterday with the surprise that they are coming to visit - tomorrow!
Em was trying to keep it a secret, and ferociously following the blog to find out where we are, but of course with no internet coverage, she had to let the cat out of the bag and ask.

HOORAY!!!! The kids, Xave & I are very very excited.

but I can't finish this post without commenting on the AFL - a tie. That is a pisser! Love it.

trying to upload pics, but I don't think there's enough signal strength, will do it anon.
