We really took it easy today. Our biggest chores were menu choices. We had a leisurely Sunday breakfast up at the long pavilion and then made our way into town to buy a Sunday paper, then we returned to relax and read in our pavilion. We went out at about 1pm, having decided to have lunch at One Tree Hill - lunch being an assortment of dips with crudités and Turkish bread, washed down with a glass of bubbly. It was lovely there, overlooking Whitsunday Island...

We arrived at the g...

We started our day with a lovely breakfast in the dining room with some really interesting people from WA and Victoria. Tom missed out on his painting lesson today because he was only 1/2 hour early. Apparently it filled an hour before schedule. So we spent our morning watching our progress around Cape York. It was awfully hot and muggy outside, so we only went out for the odd photo. As we neared the tip of the cape we were excited to find we had service too, so ...
