The day started with a leisurely
pace and ended early.Highlights of the day included:
- Waking up (a good thing at our ages)
- Swimming
- Breakfast
- Walks
- Bronzed toned bodies sitting by the pool (some of us were there as well)
- Chatting
- Skypeing
- More walking
- Wine store shopping
- Dinner
- Sleep
Beaches are a little more dangerous than those of the OBX. If you swim inside the barricade you are 90+% protected from sharks, crocs and stingers.
The Queen Mary 2 was anchored off the beach today; the ship is currently in Australian waters as part of its 2012 World Cruise.
Tonight's special drink is none other than one of Karen Price's and Barry Dunn's specialties, the Mojito.
We had dinner tonight at Vivo Bar & Grill in Palm Cove. We had a variety of entrees inculding gnocchi, and Barramundi, olives and really good ice cream and gelato. As an aside for previous MARTers, Jack did notice that for a mere $75PP the eight of us could have had this great seafood medley; multiply by two orders and we would have been at $1,200 plus wine and drinks. Eerily similar to "A Fish Called Avalon" at South Beach Miami.
If these pairings look to be out of order or paired differently than you would think, please understand it's probably an equator and/or southern hemisphere thing.
Anyway, here's the proof, we're all together and ready for the Australia and New Zealand adventure to begin.
