Hey everyone!! Sorry about the huge delay on updating the blog, we aren't very good at this are we?! We haven't really stopped since we last wrote on the blog, its been a bit crazy but lots of fun! So we went sailing round the Whitsunday Islands last Friday to Sunday! Was amazing and the weather was scorching! Headed out on a very nice boat called 'Silent night'! There were 2 crew members and 12 guests so it was a lovely number! Some of the boats take out 40 pl...
