Fridge Magnet collection

Tonight we will be in Bali, staying overnight.

Charles has joined the Ukelele group and has a practice with the choir today.

We have managed to get a fridge magnet in every Port so far, and the collection is growing on the back of the bedroom door ...... We managed both a wooden and stone Dragon on Komodo this time!

Komodo island - indonesia





Up early for a tour to see the dragons - a bit less hot than last year but still steamy!

Had a safety lecture, saw some orchids, deer, and lots of butterflies.

The dragons seemed a bit more active this year!

At sea through Indonesia




We sailed past Northern Australia, through the Timor sea and will be at Komodo island tomorrow morning to see the Dragons!

At sea we caught sight of an oil rig and visiting tanker, a rainbow, and just now a water spout.
