Today being Sunday was a day of doing anything, relaxation, reading looking.

The crab trap once again proved it can surprise with only one blue swimmer and a 6 ” live bailer shell. It was a grotesque looking thing with its very large soft foot outside the shell. The crab went into the pot and the shell went back into the unknown below the boat.

I took a ride to Rustys markets which are only on Fri, Sat and Sundays. The stalls were piled high with all manner of fresh looking fruit and vegetables and at excellent prices.

 

I didn’t need much so I only bought some English spinach and passionfruits. I’ll go there next weekend to stock up before our visitors hopefully arrive. I continued on down to Cairns Central for a spot of retail therapy and some lunch.

Later in the day saw Morgan and I weaving our way among the Sunday afternoon crowds along the waterfront.

We pedaled up to the ended of the deserted docks where only two tugs were waiting for their next task, then to the end of the road. We stopped at the Cairns Coast guard shack and had  a quick chat to the officer in charge about coast guards further north .

The day ended with live music from Salt Restaurant drifting across the water to us.
