Hi Guys, Think I might have finally caught up with the blogs now after a few days without internet/dry land.Since we last wrote we've had an absolutely amazing couple of days.We set sail on Wednesday afternoon on a 32-seater sailing boat, out of Airlee beach.When we first got on the boat we couldn't believe they could actually fit 32 of us on there but it turned out to be actually pretty big.

We started off in the botanical gardens and did a long walk round the coast to the opera house and the harb...
