28th Airlie Beach to Thomas Island 32nm


At 7am I looked at the weather forecast and decided we could make Thomas Island with the light south easterly forecast. As soon as we had a cup of tea the anchor was raised and we were on our way.

Many whales were seen and we arrived at Thomas Island in time for lunch at 1.30pm.



I had a bit of a fish but no luck.



The afternoon was spent doing a few chores and we went ashore for sundowners and lit a fire to enjoy the sunset with.



The sunset was spectacular with the smoke from the cane fires.


Sunset improved as the sun sank lower 





We retired to the yacht for fish and salad dinner.


We were very tired after our previous nights in Airlie so went to bed again at around 9pm and tried to read my book but as usual fell asleep after 2 pages
