And it really was a Family Affair!!

On Saturday 20th August we had a lovely day out
with my family who are based in Queensland. This

included my brother and wife with nieces and family.

As my mother had travelled over with me to spent time

with Ross and family she also joined us for the day.

Ages ranged from 89yrs to my nieces youngest of 18mths.

11 of us set sail for Bribie Island in glorious conditions.

Everything was perfect, great company, good food, glorious

weather and then it happened!! We found a sand bank at

low tide and so spent a few extra hours together waiting

for the tide to turn - good for family bonding! The unexpected

night sail home was rather nice as conditions were beautiful

and we had a red moon. All a good learning curve.

Must say we were delighted with the space and ease

of entertaining that number, although a pack of cards promptly

went on the shopping list in anticipation for the future unexpected...
