A new morning and we headed ashore to do some exploring. At the other end of the beach there was a track leading inland, taking us to a valley of colourful rocks and sand.
\nAs we walked back along the beach we were greeted by other boaties that had come ashore. It was while talking to Steve the skipper of Serenade (another Roberts designed ketch) that Lydia exclaimed she was jumping ship. They have dive tanks, a compressor and a speargun on Serenade.
\nRoss, the skipper of Casana said he would go diving the reef with Lydia and show her how to spearfish. Lydia organised to borrow Steve’s speargun and went off with Ross promising to return with a fish for dinner. We had spring rolls for dinner. We got the story that there were lots of fish and she did shoot one but it got away before breaking the tip of the speargun. Now we’ll have to wait for Airlie to get a speargun of her own.
\nLate afternoon we headed over to Casana (an large catamaran owned by Ross and Georgie) for sundowners. The crew from Serenade were also there. Lydia listened to all the tales of mishaps and adventures we were all telling and enjoyed raving away to Georgie’s music.
