Wind  SE  10knts Sunny                     12 nm

Another gorgeous morning in paradise.

We sat down to a large full Sunday breakfast  while watching turtles, fish , fishermen and general movement around the anchorage of boats and people.

The foreshore markets which are held once a month were on so we dinghied ashore to have a look. There wern’t many stalls mostly jewellery and clothes ,but something to look at . I purchased some tomatoes apparently from the Atherton tableland.

Back on Ovive we pulled the anchor ready to head back to Townsville. Moor R & R moved into our spot as the fellow running the jet ski hire had told Paul to pull up his anchor and move out of his so called jet skiing area. We don’t really think he can legitimately do that.

The trip back to Townsville was slow on a very flat sea as there was only 6 knts of wind.  We motored with both lures out but nothing hooked up.

Arrived back in Townsville at 3:00 and Barry and Anne headed back to Rolling Stone creek.

Doug’s sister Wendy came down to the marina for happy hour and we had a good yarn and catch up as we hadn’t seen her  for quite some years. She brought bags of fresh paw paws, oranges, passion fruit lemons and limes picked from her garden.
