At sea

A grey day as we sail down the east coast of Tasmania towards Hobart. This is Tasman Island with its huge dolerite cliffs where millions of birds nest. We have been spotting albatross and shearwaters. MrHCB also saw a pod of dolphins while he was pedalling away in the gym.

We are doing two cruises back to back. Two thirds of the passengers are getting off tomorrow in Hobart, including our two Aussie friends from Sydney. We will miss them on board but will see them again in Sydney before we leave Australia. There will be lots more people getting on of course - new friends to meet.
