Day 15 at sea heading to Oz

We're back in Australian waters in the Timor Sea and have to go through immigration. When we boarded in Melbourne they took our passports in  readiness for Indonesia and charged $50 for a visa  whether you went ashore or not: now we have to collect passports from the purser's office and take them to 4 Australian immigration officers in the dining room. (They were very jolly: I bet this is a popular job.)  Our timing was impeccable, missing any lines and  taking  minutes only. 

Judith Fordham continued her lecture series on forensics and the law and Sir Jackie Stewart talked about Formula One racing and his involvement in improving safety - though I missed that one being too busy trying to get an iced coffee which seems to be a mystery to non-South Australians.

Late dinner with a table of people all from the same retirement home in Sydney. Don't think we'll repeat that one.
