Thurday Island

06/07/12, 21.37 GMT
10 35.50S, 142 14.59 E,Horn Island
Anchored in 6 m, sand,
 
We arrived yesterday at noon at T.I., it took us one hour for the last mile: 25 kt head wind and 5 kt current against us, a real fight till the the end.
Quarantine came on board and took all our vegies, fruit and our deer prociutto.
We wanted to go for a swim in this 26 c turquoise water, but we were warned that the shark and crocodile population is very much on top of the food chain here! welcome to Australia!
We got a taxi boat to go on land and we cleared Immigration.
Then we went for a PUB hunt, and drunk our first beer ( in 10 days) in Austgralia
Today going back at sea, next stop : Darwin, 825 NM , 5-6 days
Cheers
