Fun in the sun

It's so unfair. We went to Hamilton Island and I didn't get to see anything because we were in a marina and I had to stay on the boat, down below. My dad said he would make it up to me...


He took us to Gulnare Inlet on the south coast of nearby Whitsunday Island. Here I got a ride in the dinghy.


Pretty soon after we arrived we had our first visitor...


Pepe didn't like the cockatoo so I agreed to stand guard and keep him off the boat.


Next my dad said he would catch us a fish.

He wanted to catch a 'GT' or Giant Trevally. He did catch a GT but it was a Giant Toadfish!


Toadfish are apparently poisonous so I went to hang out beside the galley window again in the hopes of getting something to eat. I figured I'd be in for a long wait...


Whenever my mum and dad go out in the dinghy they leave me in charge. I am the captain after all...


As you can see I'm not quite so good with the navigation. In fact my dad says Pepe and I are useless on watch...


Sometimes I get seasick when we're sailing, but when the weather is good I'm fine. In fact my mum says I'm a very good ship's cat.
