We had a thunderstorm last night .... well Rob told me i slept through it lol he said it was a big one . i was sleeping pretty good with the rain hitting the hatch . That was the first time i heard thunder in Australia. We needed the rain so badly , the trees and plants at Erlie Beach was gasping for it , poor things looked dry and thirsty , even the palms were droopy ! the Westerly winds really wreck havoc on not just the plants but your skin .I still keep a hat on when we go out , it helps from getting a headache from the sun beating down on my head .
We will be a close range till a few days before the doctors appointment cause Mackay marina is Expensive to stay there . I do like one thing about Mackay the Womens Showers they are HUGE big mirrors and nice shower enclosures , long .......... hot ......... steamy showers , and a place to plug in a hair dryer ! But for the week we will be close bye about 25 miles from Mackay . That is another thing i have a hard time with Names of the islands and mainlands , not at all like the USA , some are hard to pronounce , and Rob quickly lets me know how it is spelled lol . oh one more thing ! i just wish there was a easier way to get the shampoo out of my hair on the boat . i have tried a squirt bottle and that helps somewhat , you have to be carefull not to use too much soap or you cant get the soap out ! grrrrrr i have a video for you to see soon on the lovely bathroom , stay tuned to The Yankee Gurl Down Under great adventures with skipper Rob my ozzie hubby.
