Sailing Again

---

Well Hello,

On the Monday Greg and Judy, people who we met in Exmouth through the Yacht Club lent us their car for the day, we were able to get our stores, petrol, and water for our continued journey. We then went for a drive around the other side (West side) so we could see what the water was doing? We drove to Tantabiddi and the Lighthouse and took some pictures.
On that evening we went around to Lauren’s Places for Dinner which was lovely. (Lauren is a friend of ours. Poor Dave still didn’t get to meet this model like husband of hers as he was in Perth doing training, but he meet his rival in the gorgeous P(the dog).(Some people are lovely and very generous)

We are now back sailing! Left Exmouth Tuesday sailed to Tantabiddi. We spent the night there then we sailed to Yardie Creek. We had a wonderful sail down, sailing conditions just right sitting on 7 – 8 knots most of the way. We saw a pod of about 100 Dolphin and Brian & Debbie saw a Humpback whale, it was delightful.

David caught a Spanish Mackerel 900mm – 1metre long, on our journey down (eat your heart out Rachelle & Colin LOL Photo for Rachelle & Colin) Thanks TT your rod again. I tell you there was such excitement aboard, we didn’t know what to do next, anyway we worked it out. We shared our fish with Brian and Debbie and we had a lovely dinner. As we had caught up with Mark and Kristina (at Yardie) we all had the rest of the fish smoked on the beach for dinner mmmmmmm…… lovely on Thursday night.

It was a lovely day here at Yardie Creek on Thursday the weather was perfect, we went snorkelling which was beautiful, David took some underwater pictures (photo for Mail he likes fish).I am not very good in the water, but David convinced me to come with him and try as he stated you wont want to miss this. I had to jump off the boat with flippers on, and swim across to the coral patch where all the fish were. We snorkelled together and held hands until I got my confidence back, It was beautiful and very peaceful under the water. Then of course an hour later we got back to our little boat and I had to climb in and luckily there aren’t any photos’. To those who may be disappointed I am quite accomplished at these tasks now (yeh no longer Mrs Coight).
The water is so clear and a beautiful colour. Today is Friday and we hear that the weather is going to be not so good again the next few days, so we are deciding what we will do? go or stay a few more days.
Hi Coby my dear friend. Heard from her today she is keeping the fort going (work). Hi to you all thinking of you. LOL How is my darlings going? Rachelle, Camille, untidy son Gareth. (The house better be tidy when we get home…) We are having trouble with the phone and internet getting reception at present.

Big kiss for Mali Nana and Pop have got you some presents……whoo hoo lucky Mali.
