when daily to play the sell it off we
spend today it's almost had it
almost agree with you
[Music]
haha clearly of not wearing the right
apparel
[Applause]
we
[Music]
well my honey it's time to go it's time
to go so we've been Charlotte so we've
been sitting in Ken's for about a month
now for a few weeks because I've been
undertaking this grape fast just
drinking grape juice for my detox for my
help and so we've been sitting in the
river just doing that and so it's time
to go time to move on
that was a raging success the old grape
juice fast and I was actually really
surprised at how energetic I was
throughout most of the fast it was just
towards the end of the couple of weeks
just drinking grape juice that I got a
bit a bit low so yeah we weren't sure it
was gonna happen so we hang around cans
for a while and just basically chilled
out and let the body chill out and
anyway we're on our way today and it's
going to be a hit to win sales so I
generally make them a bit of food for us
so this is salad for Darren that I've
made a lovely rice salad for him and for
me my energy is going to come from this
lovely fruit salad with mangoes and
apples and bananas and some medjool
dates so yeah that's what we're doing so
we're going to pack that away get a few
last-minute things done and then
raise the anchor and hoist the sails and
off we shall go for a bash to fitzroy
island here so one of the things that we
do do when we're in a muddy Anchorage or
Neroni river
as we pull the anchor up in increments
over a period of about an hour before
we're about to depart
it gives the chain a chance to wash off
and therefore not putting so much mud in
their anchor Locker
anyway the anchor is just about to come
off the seafloor oh yeah I can hear it
now so it grinds a little bit slower
I've just telling Daren to give it a bit
of up so we can the motor of the boat
will actually lift the anchor out it'll
be well stuck because we have been
sitting here for a few weeks there we go
we got it right here Lee we're up
honey no like right in the face though
[Music]
anyway we're selling language slightly
today
if it was me
I think I might've meet you that might
have been a bit of a blustery day today
for a sale
you chose not to listen
listen ano to be foster
anyway Dollywood it's a big mention that
it's going to be blustery I didn't think
it before this plaster
this is the notorious kite
well let's go to the name for itself
yeah I think the wings that are coming
out of it
that's what Ivan wants weekly the type
it'll sort of play a bit more stay
what do we clear the kite my honey will
be full on into the thirty dots yeah
well it could be the case door what do
you got the option to enter in that Cape
Grafton passage between Cape draft and
then done with the island that's right
anybody it's a good way to get out get
your hair blowing in the breeze they're
not wind air to blow the salad off we
spend today it's still staring with my
head those have not me that bad well
that is the beauty of power
Quadra like steering
not pressure on the helm or anything
like that
called America when you got the sales
balance well
yeah it does miss out grill balances up
pretty easy
forgiving site
you can just sort of set it and forget
it old mice it was a good feeling to get
moving again roving is definitely the
lifestyle for us and we were excited for
our upcoming offshore adventures
good morning everyone we are at gorgeous
fitzroy island we we pulled in yesterday
out of that sort of 30 knot buster that
rocked up and late in the evening we
actually came along to Fitzroy Cape
Grafton was a bit roly-poly
and uncomfortable so we decided to move
on yeah yesterday was a bit of a bit of
a listen actually it was interesting
just to show me that after this two
weeks or so eating just grape juice or
drinking juice grape juice it's worn me
down quite a bit it didn't have the
desired effect because it is part of the
whole concept of the detox if I kept
detoxification and regeneration concept
that I'm following and did all those
things that stirred up my lymphatic
system and started that draining which
is great so that all worked really well
but what we didn't think about was just
the two of us sailing two up and how
much strength we have lost both of us
has lost a little bit of strength but I
particularly had so yeah it was quite
hard on me yesterday and we've just had
a bit of a chinwag and decided to take
things a little bit easier normally we
wouldn't mind going out in that kind of
weather we just reef down and hunker
down and off we go
although 30 knots plus was a little bit
that's was not actually in the forecast
but anyway you get that sometime yeah
yeah that's the way it goes anyway it's
a gorgeous day it's a beautiful tropical
island here at Fitzroy so it's lovely to
wake up to that
we'll pack up and get going yeah you
didn't know some clear water yeah baby
[Music]
anyway this guy's why I tell you big for
us what we're gonna put it back
follow us
yeah she's way too big that joy must
have been 30 kilos I guess I'll feed you
using that toy for a bit six months yeah
yeah that's that's why I like defending
the barbed over I'm the hope you're
getting realizing really quickly yeah
you can just drop the whole cat see you
later
thanks for coming and sorry about the
inconvenience anyway okay let's check it
wrong sailing on through the morning we
tapped out to the reef hoping for a
better angle of the afternoon breeze
kicked in
[Music]
I try to get chores done under way so
that I can enjoy the Anchorage's we
arrive at so I start some dinner prep
and serve at Victor's lunch
at this
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
excellent so we've just been checking
the forecast actually and really happy
with it we thought we might miss our
wreath Anchorage's but the high has been
kept down low John Melbourne way so it
means that error
when I got to be light for the next
couple of days so we're gonna go out to
a reef Anchorage called Beaver reef
beaver cave tomorrow so very excited
about that they're excited to go and
check that out so would be good
[Music]
[Music]
this head velocity like oh my three
years go the straw head anyway we're
doing a bit of restoration
yeah we might be better than we were
before
good it's good isn't it yeah lovely
lighters iolite oh yeah
it really was a primo days and we took
advantage of just chilling and enjoying
the environment
[Music]
but afternoon in our Anchorage came into
view so we dropped sail and headed on in
[Music]
comprised of several smaller islands the
rocky slopes of the northern Barnard's
are densely cloaked and rainforest
mangroves fringe part of the shoreline
with the South Barnard islands being an
important site for nesting seabirds
super little island we've come across
it's a good always little turns nesting
here and some pigeons and can't maybe
what the black one with the long red
legs is but he's very cool great little
place I love how you can just come to
these places and we're just cruising
along in your day really and then all of
a sudden you come across an island and
you go and explore and you find always
really super things forming part of the
sea country of the Nanbu Aboriginal
people the heavily forested slopes of
the Barnard islands rise steeply from
the sea and date back to 420 million
years ago
[Music]
we decided to stay an extra day as
Darren had found a cave and an adventure
was beckoning
I love the way the rocks have come away
like that
romantic IVs and
- oh cool
yeah bet let's go check it out golly
runway intuitive way that
did you guys spot that cave
we're gonna go cave hunting
Rajoy he's up there somewhere I better
go and find out where he is clearly I'm
not wearing that Roger Carroll I [ __ ]
a guy in the beach anyway
[Music]
yeah I dig that
rolling-over up look at this
[Music]
Wow
[Music]
this cave was pretty cool with exposed
layers of granite and a cracker view
through to the water's edge
[Music]
fighting in
such as the spice wonderful religious
pitches
underneath us here we've got actually
see coming in and it's a tiny little bit
chilly enough you can end up in these
trees just hanging off the cliff
[Music]
it's actually got a little graphic yeah
it's a really nice place to be
[Music]
but you know what he's painting evil
well judging by the truck yeah yeah I'm
not really sure whether order to shut
that much up there it's pretty high
[Music]
next on an exploration list was a
stunning sandbar that we'd seen from the
drone
[Music]

afternoon nabbing some sunshine and
celebrating the sheer joy that this life
brings us
