Friday 10th July

Monday the weather packed in and so we were confined to the boat, watching
movies. Tuesday and Wednesday were the same. So it was quick dashes between
Dalitu (Kirsty and David's boat) and Imagine as rain stopped. We swapped DVD
movies and tails of the sea and travels.

On Thursday we made a run for it. Four hours north and we were at Brampton
Island. The resort on the island had been closed down, with only the
caretaker left. The weather was still scattered showers, so we didn't do any
exploring. We discovered that we could get some internet reception on the
tablet by taking the cell phone up the mast and using the hotspot function.

This morning we continued north and are now anchored at Goldsmith Island. It
seems quite sheltered with lots of little bays and beaches. We were greeted
by a large turtle that seemed to be interested in our anchor. Maybe we
stirred something up. Again the phone went up the mast so we could send this
blog.
