Day 58 ~ 19,900 Miles

After 3 wonderful days in Sydney we left the harbor yesterday afternoon just as the weather was dramatically changing from a sunny and hot 98° to an overcast and windy 70°.

The wind and the waves intensified as we left the safety of the harbor but the sailors seemed to be enjoying the speed at which they were cutting through the wind and waves or maybe they were just trying to hurry back to the pier.

Today is a sea day and I have a constant view of the Australian coastline from the starboard side as we cruise south from Sydney before crossing over to Tasmania. Sadly I do see what appears to be smoke rising from a brush fire on the coastline near Sand Patch Point.Lue lisää
