Day 70 ~ 22,700 Miles, Esperance

Day 70 ~ 22,700 Miles
Esperance, Western Australia and I have a wonderful all-day excursion scheduled to soak in as much of the remainder of this journey as is possible.

Ship anchored, Check
Day bag packed, Check
Excursion ticket ready, Check
Glorious weather forecast, Check

But wait, another change. It seems that the wind and waves are too dangerous to tender ashore and the Captain just announced that we are to make way directly and quickly to Fremantle/Perth.

Do not pass GO, Check
Do not collect $200, Check
Miss three additional ports, Check

Expected arrival in Fremantle/Perth is now tomorrow afternoon. Unknown what happens after we reach port.

At least I’ve seen Esperance from a beautiful vantage point. Is that a tear or just the sun in my eyes.

Anchors away. ⚓️Weiterlesen
