Day 9 at sea

Today is different because suddenly I can post my blogs. The captain has just announced we are close to Thursday Island in the Prince of Wales Channel which has a communication tower so that must be why. Soon we'll be turning the corner into Torres Strait and going past Wednesday Island. The view from the port side is beautiful - many islands,  aquagreen sea and fluffy white clouds. It's 27'C and a little breeze.

This is the best yet: the morning's parade of islands and even a town with this lovely sparkling sea - I haven't read a word, too busy just looking and will have to miss line dancing.

Then two Black Hawk helicopters from Townsville flew over - who was looking at whom?
