Happy Valentine’s Day
Today we are anchored at Moreton Island. This is an island +/- 10 miles off the coast near the City of Brisbane. The island is mainly a get-away island for the Aussie’s to go camping. There are limited Services like restaurants and hotels. The main activities are snorkeling, hiking and watersports. As there were no docking facilities for our ship, we were anchored a mile or so off shore. Our plan for today was to go over to the island and go for a hike and some beach time. at breakfast on the back deck we were greeted with a torrential down pour. The plan was to wait till the rain stopped as there was limited shelter on the island. Well, at 11:00 the rain was still coming down. With the tender ride 45 min each way, we decided to give this stop a miss. For the afternoon I decided to pay a visit to the fitness center on board.
For the night we had booked a Valentine’s dinner at one of the specialty restaurants on board, where we were treated to a fantastic meal.
Looking back, we ended up making the best of a very wet day.
Cheers
Cor and Carol
