Arrived safely at Port Bundaberg Marina, Queensland. The breeze picked up again this morning so we re-hoisted the Parasailor at 07.00 and had an increasingly sporty ride towards Bundaberg - it was blowing 20 knots when we finally wrestled the sail to the deck.
We have completed formalities with Border Force (Immigration and Customs) which all went smoothly; the officers were very welcoming and friendly. We are now waiting for the bio-security / quarantine inspection but the wait allowed us to cook the last of our bacon and egg for butties of the same name.
Only after this final inspection will we be allowed to go ashore and explore. The marina's quite a way out of town so we suspect the introduction to Australia will be gradual, which is just as well after the past 10 days!=20
All well aboard, we are very happy to have arrived.[END]
