A well-earned rest in Sydney

Saturday 14 October 2017 20:30

We arrived in Sydney this evening and berthed at the Cruising Yacht Club of Australia in Rushcutters Bay. Thankfully, we were just in time to order dinner before the Club’s kitchen closed. It was a long day today, a bit windy and rough, so we were keen to shower and freshen up after 3 days at sea.

Despite the weather, we had some terrific experiences, like sailing fast under a star-less sky and over a black sea sparkling with bio-luminesence. We saw many whales along the way, some breaching spectacularly.

We will spend the night on Sydney to have a good sleep. Tomorrow, we push on to Eden.

Gigi’s and Leanne’s voyage ends here. Thanks for being part of the crew, you did a great job. 

Peter will fly up on the morning to join Andrew, Dino, Catherine and me for the last leg home to Melbourne.
