Subject: A long day, but worth it…
As I've mentioned before, sailing plans are best written in sand below the high water line. Flexibility is absolutely necessary and not just for getting around on a moving platform, but in making plans and adapting them as well. We weighed anchor in Von Donop this morning and headed off to Walsh Cove… a nice little anchorage we had enjoyed years ago. It's the place that a large eagle was cruising our dog Sophie and then sat on the tree we had shore tied to, just waiting for her to come out. Anyway we headed for there; only to find it chocker- block full with sailboats, motorboats and even a prawn trap mid channel. So we carried on to the next possibility (Elworthy Island); it was full. On we went heading for a third possibility, Tenedos Bay which is a large anchorage, shielded from the strongest winds 🤞and it has a walking trail and a lake that may be warm enough for swimming. Also we were quite certain Ms. Maddie could use the exercise as much as we could.
So, here we are, shore-tied not far from the bluff in the last photo, looking forward to a good hike and possibly a swim, tomorrow. Hope your swimming water is warm and your hiking trails clear. CJ
